However, the Bianconeri managed to agree the payer’s transfer fee with Santos, so the player will move to Turin immediately.
Juventus will pay €1.5m now and €1.5m if they qualify for the Champions League in 2021-22.
Santos’ President Andres Rueda has revealed Kaio Jorge refused to sign a contract extension in January 2021.
He also rejected a move to Benfica, opting to join Juventus instead. The Portuguese club offered €6m to secure the player’s services, but Kaio Jorge had already agreed personal terms with the Bianconeri.
