Barcelona have reportedly reached an agreement with Memphis Depay who had been linked with a move to Juventus.
According to Calciomercato.com, the Dutch striker is set to move to the Nou Camp on a free transfer as his contract with Lyon expires at the end of the month.
Juventus had been linked with securing the player’s services as the Old Lady are on the lookout for a new centre forward in the summer.
The future of Cristiano Ronaldo is up in the air, while Alvaro Morata will remain on loan in Turin until June 2022.
