Kerim Alajbegovic has arrived in Turin this evening, so will undergo his Juventus medical to complete the €33m plus bonus move from Bayer Leverkusen.

Chelsea had already agreed a fee with Bayer Leverkusen, but the player hesitated when it became clear he would not be getting regular time on the pitch.
Juventus were instead able to convince Alajbegovic that he could be given the opportunity to grow alongside Kenan Yildiz, even if they haven’t qualified for the Champions League this season.
He turns 19 in September and coach Luciano Spalletti has already commented that he will play as a trequartista at Juve, so in a more central position behind the striker.
