Juventus have reportedly already agreed personal terms with Denis Zakaria’s agent, so are just waiting for Rodrigo Bentancur and Dejan Kulusevski to join Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur.
According to Calciomercato.com, the deal is done for Zakaria, who has refused to sign a new contract at Borussia Monchengladbach and would be a free agent in June anyway.
It’s widely reported the official offer has been put forward worth €5m plus €2m in bonuses, beating those who had intended to snap Zakaria up as a free agent at the end of the season, including Roma.
Now the Bianconeri are just waiting for the outgoing transfers to be finalised before they can capture Zakaria, as the clock ticks down to Monday’s transfer deadline day.
Aston Villa need to raise their initial bid for Uruguay international Bentancur, especially as Juve still owe Boca Juniors a percentage of his sell-on fee.
Meanwhile, Tottenham are the favourites for Kulusevski, who was also offered to Milan and Everton.
Spurs are in the lead, as they are prepared to sign the Sweden international on loan with obligation to buy.

Well done Juve!
Seems like Allegri is switching to a 3-5-2 because Chiesa is injured. Either that or they will go for Dembele too if Kulusevski leaves.
But our Plan A was to Get Ramsey and Artur out…. bentancut and Kulu was our Plan B this…
Another Khedira, Ramsey, Rabiot deal. Cheap but over the top salary.
Another high salaried dud joining Jube’s bench
$45 mil Kulu and $72 mil Arthur deserve better. Jube ruined their career. They should get out of that hell hole as fast as they can
And about Ramsey, stay there man. You deserve every dollar of that 10.5 mil Jube is paying you. Not your fault they agreed to pay you that much money in the first place. Keep making them pay.
Where do you guys see the high salary? 5+2 is the offer to Gladbach to release the player now, instead of waiting to get him for free in summer. There’s no info on his salary yet.
If he comes just relax, he could be a diamond in the rough. Unfortunately we cannot lure proven names from the biggest clubs simply due to the transfer fees and salaries. Getting upcoming and hungry players is a step in the right direction. As long as they are properly vetted as we cannot afford to take on the Bentancur’s and Rabiot’s of the world.
Stay strong Ramsey, you are a legend
