Juventus supporters lined the streets to welcome the club’s first new arrival of the summer transfer window: Jonathan David, who has undergone a medical with the Bianconeri and is now just awaiting an official announcement. 

David is set to join the Bianconeri on a free transfer after the expiry of his deal with Lille in Ligue 1 at the end of the 2024-25 season. 

While the move is cited as a ‘free transfer’, it is understood that Juventus will spend in excess of €15m on signing bonuses and auxiliary fees.

Watch: David arrives to complete last steps of Juventus move

The Canada international arrived in Italy to complete his medical on Friday, and was welcomed by over 200 supporters outside JMedical, the club’s medical facility. 

He was able to stop for a couple of quick selfies and to sign one or two shirts in the crowd, before heading into the building to complete the final formalities of his Juventus move.
