According to Tuttosport, Liverpool has contacted Juventus winger Francisco Conceição, viewing him as a cost-effective alternative to Paris Saint-Germain player Barcola.

Liverpool's primary target for strengthening the wing is currently believed to be Barcola. The French star recently rejected a contract extension with Paris Saint-Germain, but PSG's asking price for him is as high as approximately 170 million euros.

According to Tuttosport, another candidate for Liverpool is Juventus winger Conceição Jr. Reports indicate that Liverpool has contacted the Portuguese international's team to inquire about a potential transfer.

Considering Juventus loaned him from Porto last year for 9.5 million euros and then completed a permanent transfer this summer for 32 million euros, they are not in a hurry to sell.

If Juventus is willing to consider Liverpool's offer, the minimum asking price would be 50 million euros, which is still less than one-third of what Paris Saint-Germain is asking for Barcola.

Last season, Conceição Jr. contributed 6 goals and 5 assists for Juventus in 45 official matches.
