Juve close in on Genoa starlet Mandragora

Juvenuts are closing in on a deal to sign Genoa midfielder
Rolando Mandragora.

The 18-year-old midfielder has cemented his reputation as
one of Italy’s brightest talents this season while on loan at
Pescara.

Juventus are understood to have negotiated an initial fee of
around £7.3 million with Genoa and have all but agreed a
five-year contract with the player.

Mandragora is expected to complete his dream move in the
next few days but will remain on loan at Pescara for the rest
of the season.

Chelsea are also believed to have registered an interest in
Mandragora who has made 15 appearances in Serie B for
Pescara this season and made his Italy Under-21 debut last
August.
