Juventus are set to wrap up the signing of Italian midfielder Stefano Sturaro from Genoa, Il Corriere dello Sport reports.
The Bianconeri are believed to have agreed a €5 million deal for the talented footballer, who will be loaned back to the Rossoblu for the 2014/2015 season.
Stefano Sturaro had come through the youth ranks at Stadio Luigi Ferraris, but was only recently handed his first team debut.
After making just eight league appearances during the loan spell with Modena, the 21-year-old made his first Serie A outing as he came on as a second-half substitute in the 2-0 defeat to Inter Milan in August 2013.
Sturaro then waited almost four months for the next first team appearance, but eventually managed to nail down a regular starting berth and made no less than 13 Serie A starts, scoring 1 goal in the process.
And he seems to have done enough to not only catch the eye of Juventus officials, but also secure a move to Turin.
