It's believed Monaco have had a bid of €30m plus bonuses accepted by the Biancocelesti for their wantaway forward, who has a medical certificate excusing him from training.

It’s not clear, however, if Keita will accept the move as so far he has rejected all other options than Juve.

The Bianconeri had a €15m bid rejected and say they’ve pulled out of the running, but with his contract expiring next summer Keita had hoped to force the Aquile’s hand.

However, Di Marzio's website is reporting that Keita has also given his OK to the deal, and is expected in Monte Carlo today for a medical.
