Juventus remain in talks with Porto over Francisco Conceiçao’s permanent transfer, but have already lined up Jadon Sancho as a possible alternative.
Juventus must decide between signing Conceição on a permanent transfer from Porto or acquiring Sancho from Manchester United this summer.
Portuguese newspaper Record reported last week that the Bianconeri had agreed to match Conceiçao’s €30m clause, but according to Italian sources, this doesn’t seem to be the case.
Juventus, in fact, are still in talks with Porto to lower their demands, according to Sky Sport Italia and Gazzetta.
The pink paper confirms that Sancho is a genuine transfer target for the Old Lady, but the Bianconeri must choose between him and Conceiçao. The Portuguese has already scored seven goals and provided six assists in 39 appearances during a one-season loan spell at Juventus.
The Serie A giants have scheduled a new round of talks with Manchester United over Sancho, who, according to reports in England, has already reached a verbal agreement with José Mourinho’s Fenerbahce.
