Francisco is young, he has a lot of experience to gain, and he needs to convince himself that he can play a bit inside.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Spalletti went on to suggest some improvements in the Portuguese\u2019s approach to game that can take him to the next level.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cHaving a man behind him shouldn\u2019t make him feel as anxious as you can see. If he receives the ball on the outside and faces you, he\u2019s unmarkable. In seven or eight situations, he creates seven or eight potential threats. Then he needs to improve his decision-making and develop the ability in one-on-one situations to understand if there\u2019s someone I can pass to. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- Ezoic - wp_under_second_paragraph - under_second_paragraph --><!-- End Ezoic - wp_under_second_paragraph - under_second_paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>The Italian described Conceicao as one of the best wingers he has ever worked with.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>He\u00a0does things one at a time every now and then, but as a winger, he\u2019s one of the best I\u2019ve seen. He needs to improve his shooting on goal. Salah is a total wreck; he has intensity and ferocity, it\u2019s hard to keep him down. He also created some crucial balls today.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It is fair to say that while Spalletti is saying what he is to keep the ex-Porto player satisfied. After all, Conceicao does have weaknesses and he hasn\u2019t always been consistent. That is one aspect of his game that has to improve, if he takes a step to Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Ezoic - wp_mid_content - mid_content --><!-- End Ezoic - wp_mid_content - mid_content --><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trambak Bhattacherjee I GIFN<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsitaly.com\/2026\/luciano-spalletti-compares-juventus-chico-conceicao-to-liverpools-mo-salah\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5 Serie A side Juventus have seen winger Francisco Conceicao get linked with a move to Liverpool, who will soon need a replacement for Mohamed Salah.
