Report: Juve agree Romulo terms

By Football Italia staff

It’s rumoured Juventus have agreed terms with Verona to sign Romulo on loan with option to buy for €7m.

The winger has long been linked with a move to Turin and negotiations have intensified in recent days.

According to SportMediaset and Sky Sport Italia, the announcement of a deal is imminent, having presented Roberto Pereyra to the media today.

Juve have agreed to take Romulo on loan from Verona with an option to buy, which would take the total cost of the operation to €7m.

The 27-year-old is Brazilian, but has chosen to play his international football for Italy and missed out on the World Cup due to injury.

He scored six goals in 32 games for Hellas Verona last season and is known for his midfield versatility.

It had been rumoured that Juve wanted to sign Romulo earlier, but Coach Antonio Conte did not back the move.

New boss Massimiliano Allegri, on the other hand, is ready to welcome the ex-Fiorentina man with open arms.
