Juventus are reportedly keen to sign Porto youngster Francisco Conceicao, while Fabio Miretti is known as the sacrificial lamb.
With less than 48 hours separating us from the club’s first match in Serie A, Thiago Motta’s team is still seriously lacking in wingers. The two protagonists at the moment are Kenan Yildiz and Timothy Weah, since Federico Chiesa and Filip Kotstic are ruled out.
In recent weeks, Conceicao has one of the great contenders to sign for the ranks of La Vieja along with Nico González, a fugitive from Fiorentina.
The 21-year-old completed his career at Sporting and was also at Ajax, and is now coming off an impressive crusade with Porto that earned him a place in Portugal’s all-star squad for Euro 2024.
According to Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla, Conceicao also needs to sign for Juventus, while Porto are in a position to fulfill his wish.
While the transfer formula is still to be defined, the Portuguese will give Juventus around 30 million euros.
The Bianconeri also sign Atalanta midfielder Teun Koopmeiners for around €60 million.
It is possible that the management will be forced to get rid of certain players to increase the budget for the newcomers.
Pedulla that Juve have selected to put Miretti on the list of moves.
The club has been working on selling the likes of Chiesa, Kostic, Weston McKennie and other exiles, but thus far to no avail.
On the other hand, Juventus already have a possible client for Miretti in the Genoa user who has been following the youngster for a long time.
The 21-year-old is a young Juventus product who is among the first players to make a permanent move from the Next Gen team to the first team.
Miretti had an encouraging preseason but suffered a problem that kept him out of action for a few weeks.
Juventus want TWO quality wingers. And Chiesa is back.
Miretti was euthanized 3 years ago. I doubt anyone will buy it.
Well, Juventino. Il is at its most productive average. Juve have too many average players in general. I think rebuilding the team will take time, but it is also very necessary.
