Juventus have reportedly been given another boost in their efforts to push through a deal for Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt.
The Serie A champions are allegedly well placed to edge out Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona in the race for the 19-year-old's signature.
The former remain interested in the Netherlands international, although it now appears likely that the player will be making the move to Italy.
Sky in Italy claims that the youngster has agreed terms - said to be £10.75m per year - with Juventus ahead of a switch to Turin in the coming days.
The report adds that De Ligt will have a release clause of £135m, which is approximately half of what Juventus could pay Ajax this summer.
Negotiations are expected to continue between the two clubs while PSG wait for any further developments.
