  • AC Milan take on neighbours Inter Milan in Serie A this weekend, but the derby is far from Sergio Conceicao's mind, their manager said on Tuesday, with the focus fully on the Champions League where they aim to secure a place in the last 16.

Porto coach Sergio Conceicao is focusing solely on the upcoming Champions League match against Arsenal, dismissing any talk about the potential Milan derby in the next round. Despite the possibility of facing either AC Milan or Inter Milan in the quarter-finals, Conceicao emphasized the importance of first overcoming Arsenal in their last-16 tie. He highlighted the need for his team to be at their best, acknowledging Arsenal's strong performance in the Premier League and their quality players. Conceicao also mentioned that while Porto has had a mixed season, they are improving and need to be fully prepared for the challenge ahead.
