Canada striker Jonathan David arrives in Italy for expected transfer to Juventus
MILAN (AP) — Canada forward Jonathan David arrived in Italy on Friday for medical tests ahead of an expected transfer to Juventus.
With his five-year contract at Lille having expired, David can join the record 36-time Italian champion on a free transfer.
He will sign a five-year deal worth 6 million euros ($7 million) per season, with up to 2 million euros ($2.4 million) in bonuses, the Gazzetta dello Sport reported.
It’s the first big market move by Juventus’ new general manager Damien Comolli, who confirmed last month that Igor Tudor will stay on as coach.
