When Lucumi will complete Juventus move after agreement with Bologna | OneFootball

Jhon Lucumi is heading to Juventus, and there is no longer any doubt about that as the Bianconeri look to ensure their team is in fine shape.

The men at the Allianz Stadium see him as one of the best defenders in Italy, while Lucumi wants his next club to be Juventus, meaning talks with Bologna have gone well. All parties are now understood to have reached an agreement, putting the defender close to completing his move.

Lucumi Set for Juventus Medical

Tuttomercatoweb claims all parties are now in agreement and Lucumi is set to travel to Turin for his medical to complete the move.

Juventus had wanted to sell one of their defenders before completing a move for him, but the Bianconeri have now found the money needed to make the transfer happen and have done their best to close the deal.

Lucumi has got what he wanted all summer after rejecting offers to join other teams. The report says Juventus expect him to undergo his medical on Sunday or Monday, after which he can complete the move to Turin.

The defender’s desire to join Juventus has helped the deal progress, with the Bianconeri also determined to secure his signature. His arrival will give the club another defensive option as they prepare for the new season.

Juventus Must Sell a Defender

Lucumi’s arrival means Juventus will have to sell one of their defenders, with Federico Gatti and Lloyd Kelly among the players who could leave the club this summer.

The Bianconeri must now find a solution for one of their existing defenders as they make room for their new arrival. The decision will be an important part of their squad planning as they prepare for the campaign ahead.

Lucumi’s arrival demonstrates the club’s ambition to strengthen their squad with quality players. Juventus have worked to complete the deal despite initially wanting to sell one of their defenders first, and they have now found a way to make the transfer happen.

With Lucumi expected to complete his medical shortly, Juventus are close to adding another important defensive option to their squad.
