The race for Juventus winger Francisco Conceição is heating up, with both Manchester United and Liverpool closely monitoring his situation in Turin. The Portugal international could be on the move this summer if the Bianconeri fail to secure Champions League qualification for next season—a scenario that's very much in play.

Juventus currently sit third in Serie A, but with just two games remaining, they hold only a one-point lead over fifth-placed AS Roma. Should they miss out on a top-four finish, Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport reports that big-name sales are expected, and Premier League clubs are circling. Conceição, in particular, has caught the eye of top English sides.

For Liverpool, the interest makes perfect sense. With Mohamed Salah expected to depart Anfield this summer, the Reds are actively searching for a right-sided forward to fill that void. Meanwhile, Manchester United are also in the mix as they prepare for a return to Champions League football under Erik ten Hag.

At just 23 years old, Conceição has already shown flashes of brilliance in his debut Serie A season. With three goals and four assists to his name, his underlying stats are even more impressive: he ranks in the top 10% of wingers in the league for non-penalty expected goals, expected assists, successful dribbles, and possessions won in the final third. That kind of all-around threat makes him a tantalizing prospect for any top club.

Conceição joined Juventus from Porto for €32 million last summer and is under contract until 2030. But if the Bianconeri stumble in their Champions League chase, that long-term deal may not be enough to keep Premier League suitors at bay.
