He was one of the revelation players of Peruvian football in 2018 and on August 25 of that year, he also scored his first goal as a professional in the 3–2 defeat against FBC Melgar. Having had a wonderful season with 37 league appearances, San Martín decided to not let him go ahead of the 2019 season, although there was big interest in the 19-year old midfielder, followed by several important clubs from Peru and Mexico.[4][5] In addition, he also won the award for best revelation player in the 2018 Torneo Descentralizado.[6]

In the beginning of January 2020, San Martín refused once again to sell Concha, with big interest from Alianza Lima.[7] However, one month later, it was confirmed that Alianza had bought him free, but he would remain at San Martín on loan until the end of the season.[8] In the summer 2020, Alianza wanted to recall Concha, but San Martín refused to let him go until the end of the loan deal.[9]

International career

Concha has represented Peru in the U18, U20 and U23 categories. With the U-20 team he scored 3 goals in 13 games and participated in the 2019 South American U-20 Championship.

On 12 January 2019, he was included in the roster of 23 players for the 2019 2019 South American U-20 Championship He played all four matches during the group stage, however Peru did not advance to the next stage.
