Matthijs de Ligt 'agrees five-year deal' with new club
The Ajax wonderkid has been linked with a move to Paris Saint-German, Juventus, Manchester United and Barcelona.
According to reports, Matthijs de Ligt has agreed a five-year deal with Seria A champions Juventus ahead of a possible switch from Ajax.
Mino Raiola told Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf that De Ligt had finally agreed a deal worth around £8million with the club over five years.
Raiola has now urged Ajax board to agree on a fee with the Old Lady to get the transfer done.
"Agreements have been made with Matthijs and it is up to Ajax how to deal with this," Raiola told De Telegraaf.
Ajax have reportedly rejected Juventus' first transfer bid, which was around £45million, but both De Ligt and his agent are hoping that the deal will fall through.
So much so that Raiola stressed De Ligt would definitely report to Ajax for pre-season training and not attempt to force through his exit.
Ajax will return to training next week in preparation for the season, but Juventus are confident a fee would be agreed on a fee before then.
Juventus are looking to fly de Ligt out to Italy as soon as Wednesday to enable him complete his medical.
