Juventus believe they will strike a deal with Arsenal for Wojciech Szczesny before departing for their pre-season tour next week.

The two clubs still can’t agree on a fee for the Polish goalkeeper, although the Bianconeri are adamant that they can come to an agreement before flying out to the United States.

La Gazzetta dello Sport claim that Max Allegri’s side believe €9million will be enough to see the 27-year-old move to the Serie A champions.

Despite talk of a move to Turin all summer, the clubs have yet to agree on a fee with Juve not close to Arsenal’s valuation of the goalkeeper.

Arsene Wenger is said to want €15milllion for Szczesny, while Juve have only offered €8million for his services.

The clubs will now have to come to a compromise to ensure the deal goes through, especially given the goalkeeper has already agreed personal terms on a move to the Champions League finalists.

Juve goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon pretty much confirmed the club would sign Szczesny in the summer early last month when asked about the shot-stopper.

Buffon said: “I also think though that Juve have made the best choice they could make, because Szczesny, in my opinion, had a great season last year.

“He was probably the best goalkeeper in terms of consistency, and saves made.

“I think that it’s an intelligent marriage between the strongest club and the one who was the strongest goalkeeper last year.”
