Now it's official! Francisco Conceição – after the annual loan in Juventus that ended at the end of the Club World Cup staged in the United States – moves permanently to Juventus and signs a contract that binds him to our colors until 2030.
Good news for him and for all of us who, therefore, a few weeks later embrace Francisco Conceição again after the excellent numbers obtained during his first adventure in Juventus.
Skill, technique and tactical intelligence. With these characteristics we had presented him last summer upon his arrival – as mentioned on a temporary basis by Porto – and a year later we confirm with satisfaction what we wrote, adding that his dedication and his attachment to our colors have been an important added value for the team.
Conceição has taken the field forty times with our shirt, in all competitions, more than half of which as a starter. Double figures, then, in terms of goal participations: seven goals scored, including two at the Club World Cup against Al-Ain, and 4 assists provided.
These are just a few numbers, but to get to know Francisco more deeply as a player we need to go into more detail.
Since joining Juventus last August, only Kenan Yildiz (84) has completed more dribbles than Francisco Conceição (71) among Juventus players, in all competitions.
Among Serie A players in all competitions, since the start of last season only Moise Kean (19) has attempted more shots following a successful dribble than Francisco Conceição: 12.
Furthermore, again since his arrival in Juventus, no Juventus player has sent a teammate to shoot more often after a successful dribble in all competitions than Francisco Conceição: four chances created by the Portuguese in these game situations, equal to Andrea Cambiaso.
Since Francisco Conceição joined Juventus, only Dusan Vlahovic (192) has played more balls inside the opponent's box than the Portuguese (167) among Juventus players – taking into account all competitions.
