Juventus is reportedly intensifying its efforts to secure the services of promising Portuguese forward Francisco Conceição from FC Porto. The Italian club is understood to be preparing a significant increase to their initial transfer bid as negotiations progress.
According to reports circulating in the football world, the latest offer from the Turin giants is set to be elevated to €24 million. This move brings Juventus notably close to meeting Porto`s current valuation of the player, which is believed to stand at €25 million. This asking price from the Portuguese club represents a slight reduction from Conceição`s original release clause, reported to be €30 million.
Adding momentum to the potential transfer, the player himself is said to be highly enthusiastic about making the switch to Juventus. The 2002-born winger, who has already earned caps for the Portuguese national team, reportedly harbors a strong desire to be a confirmed and integral part of the Juventus squad should the move materialize.
Given the dwindling difference in valuation between the clubs and the player`s clear preference for the transfer, sources close to the situation suggest that a resolution could be reached swiftly. Juventus appears determined to land their target and seems confident that this increased financial proposal will be sufficient to finalize the deal for the dynamic young attacker.
