Juventus are reportedly close to signing 17-year-old Pedro Pereira from Sampdoria, beating Leicester City.
The right-back will turn 18 in three weeks and has already made a name for himself at Samp, becoming the youngest player to provide an assist in Europe’s top five Leagues this season.
The Portuguese talent grew up at the Benfica youth academy and Samp paid €190,000 for him in July 2015.
His price-tag has already sky-rocketed and it was reported Sampdoria asked Leicester City for €10m.
