Liverpool and Manchester United could compete for the signature of Juventus midfielder Francisco Conceicao during the winter transfer window, according to Calciomercato.
Conceicao has been a key player for the Bianconeri over the past few years, and he has been ever-present in the starting line-up this season, registering a goal and an assist.
Despite this, his position at the club is unsafe. Jeremie Boga and Kenan Yildiz are currently injured, and their returns could directly impact the playing time of the Portuguese.
Furthermore, Juventus have plenty of financial concerns amid the lack of Champions League football and may not resist his departure for the right price this winter.
Juventus are eyeing around €40m for the former Porto man. Liverpool could emerge as strong candidates to land him as they seek to add another right-sided winger.
The Reds have Cody Gakpo, Victor Munoz and Rio Ngumoha as options, but none of them are specialists from the position.
United, on the other hand, may not seek to sign him, given they have Bryan Mbeumo as a regular choice on the right flank. Amad Diallo, who is presently out injured, has been a solid competitor.
