Sergio Conceição it has always had a very close relationship with Italy. Between Lazio, Parma and Inter he played five seasons in Serie A and with him he often battled with the Italians in Europe as a coach. He was at the helm of Porto who kicked Pirlo’s Juventus out of the 2020/2021 Champions League, as he was leading the Dragoes eliminated last season by Inter, again in the Champions League. How can we forget the comparison with Di Francesco’s Roma in the 2018/2019 Champions League? In short: Conceiçao’s name is closely linked to our Serie A. Two seasons ago, his name was also linked to the Inter bench, given the difficulties that Simone Inzaghi was facing. Now he could land on the other side of Milan. Milan, in fact, has included him in the list of possible successors to Pioli.
Conceicao, the wandering mine
The relationship between Conceicao and the Porto will end after seven years due to…Villas Boas. The former Special Two abandoned his coaching career and became the new president of Porto, putting an end to the “dictatorship” of Pinto Da Costa. The 86-year-old Portuguese has ruled the Dragoes continuously since 1982. The plenipotentiary president served fifteen mandates, under whose leadership Porto also dominated in Europe. Now, with the new course of Villas Boas, Conceiçao will also say goodbye. The coach in fact had a renewal agreement with Da Costa in the event of further re-election. With the advent of Mourinho’s former assistant, that agreement is waste paper and therefore, Conceiçao has started to look around. On him, there is not only Milan, but also Lyon and Naples.
Conceiçao to Milan: 35%
According to what the Gazzetta dello Sport, Jorge Mendes, attorney of Conceicaowould be putting pressure to bring his client to Milan. The Rossoneri reflect. After having “burned” Lopetegui, the management is evaluating other profiles. The Portuguese is close to the philosophy of the Rossoneri club and can be an excellent option. There could be some news in this regard as early as next week, given that the Rossoneri are in a hurry to plan for the future.
Conceição al Lione: 35%
The name of Conceicao he is also placed next to the bench of Lyon. The Portuguese would gladly return to Ligue1, where he has already coached Nantes. The French team is ambitious and Conceicao would fit well with Textor’s project. For this reason, according to the portal footmercatothe name of the Portuguese is becoming more and more insistent in the environment.
Conceiçao to Napoli: 30%
Sergio Conceição it is a profile that De Laurentiis has been monitoring for some time for the Napoli. It is no mystery that the president’s priority is Antonio Conte, but the Lecce coach continues to procrastinate and now Chelsea have also stepped forward. In these hours Pioli’s candidacy is advancing, but, according to the portal calciomercato.comConceiçao remains topical for the Neapolitan club, even if out of the way. De Laurentiis could be preparing yet another coup.
