Multiple reports in Italy claim Juventus and PSG are expected to reach an agreement over Leandro Paredes’ move to Turin today.
The Bianconeri are on the lookout for more midfielder reinforcements after the signing of Paul Pogba and Angel Di Maria, who joined the Bianconeri in the summer but have suffered injuries and are currently out of action.
Paredes is in talks with Juventus, as confirmed by PSG boss Christophe Galtier last week. The French boss included Paredes in the squad to face Monaco last night, but the ex-Roma and Empoli man spent the whole match on the bench.
Gazzetta and Tuttosport claim Juventus and PSG are expected to reach a final agreement over Paredes’ transfer today.
The 28-year-old should join Juventus on an initial loan deal with an option to buy which becomes mandatory if certain targets are met.
According to Tuttosport, Juventus and PSG are discussing the final details, so Paredes can arrive in Italy tomorrow to undergo his medical with the Old Lady.
Juventus will make room for Paredes by sending Nicolò Rovella on loan to Monza, but the Bianconeri are also working to loan Arthur to Sporting, Lyon or Everton.
Hope so – sooner the better
