Conference about player (6)
I believe the answer is:
parley
'conference' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'about player' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates anagramming the letters.
'player' with letters rearranged gives 'PARLEY'.
(Other definitions for parley that I've seen before include "discussion" , "Negotiate" , "Negotiation between enemies" , "Dialogue between enemies" , "Speak with another" .)
