Juventus are looking to renew Francisco Conceicao’s contract, with the Portugal international also open to extending his stay in Turin, GIVEMESPORT understands.
Conceicao attracted significant interest this summer, including approaches from multiple Premier League clubs, but his preference has always been to continue with Juventus.
Conceicao is already well-contracted until 2030, but the parties are set to discuss improved terms over the coming weeks.
Conceicao was on the radar of Manchester United, Aston Villa, Paris Saint-Germain and Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal over the summer, although none of the quartet placed a formal bid in the end. Juventus had made it clear to suitors that they did not wish to sell.
Conceicao made 42 appearances in all competitions for Juventus in 2025/26, scoring four goals and providing five assists. His consistent performances have made him an increasingly valuable asset for Juventus, and there is a clear willingness from the player to now extend his stay in Turin.
GMS reported in the summer that Manchester United were in 'close contact' with the player's representatives over a potential move to Old Trafford, although no formal bid was lodged.

Speaking at the end of last season, the 23-year-old said: "My mentality is that I have no fear, I will try to prove myself, and believe I am one of the best players in the world in my role.
"My father tells me to play with passion, to enjoy my football, try to make the difference with my characteristics.
"I also like to defend and win tackles, because these are the things my father taught me when I was a kid, that winning a tackle can be just as important as an assist or a goal. It gives me joy, just like dribbling or scoring a goal. I try to win duels to help the team.
"I learned so much from my father because he is a great coach, he showed me where I had to improve, and if I am here today, it's because he helped me grow."
Conceicao has started every single Juve game so far this season, providing one assist already. He was a key part of Portugal's 2026 World Cup squad, coming off the bench at half-time in two of the three group games and then featuring off the bench in the knockout matches with Croatia and Spain.
