You might recognise the name Conceição from the coach of Porto, Sergio, or more committed Football Manager players might have registered it from his son Francisco bustling with potential on the game before even making his debut. Now he has, and in just a few games, his incredible quality is clear.
The Lowdown: While it may seem completely ridiculous to be discussing a player after just 38 minutes of first team action, Francisco Conceição has made those minutes count to a huge degree, and with anticipation over his debut, it's fair to say he hasn't disappointed.
His promotion from Porto B on February 13th saw him involved in a stoppage time winner after being substituted on in the 77th minute, queuing beautiful and tearful celebrations with his father, only for the cruelest use of VAR yet ruling out the goal.
Following on from just a minute of action against Juventus in the Champions League where he got to meet Cristiano Ronaldo, Conceição was back in action last night, again coming on as a late substitute, and again having a huge impact, winning a penalty that not only insured three points, but that the hype is set to continue.
Attributes: The first notable thing about Conceição is that he's rather small, at just 5ft 5, but he's so far shown in a physical league that it's not a big issue, made up for with his close control and acceleration into spaces. Coming in off the right wing, he's comfortable beating his man or linking up with his teammates to penetrate the opposition box and cause chaos.
Comparable Players: You'll undoubtedly balk at the name Lionel Messi, and we're not suggesting he'll reach that level, but seeing a tiny forward with exceptional balance coming in off the right wing to score, it is reminiscent of the Argentine's playing style.
Key Stat: Conceição is the second youngest ever player to play for Porto in the Champions League.
Linked With: No one yet, but after a season of first team football next season the transfer rumours should pick up pace.
Playmaker Potential Score: 8.5/10. It's hard to bet against Portuguese players succeeding with the quality coming out of the league at the moment, and Conceição could well be another top talent off of the production line.
