Barcelona striker Luis Suarez has agreed personal terms with Juventus, according to reports in Italy.
Sky Sports Italy and Gazzetta dello Sport say Suarez has reached an agreement to join Juve on a deal worth €10m a year.
Andrea Pirlo’s side are reportedly waiting for the 33-year-old Uruguay international to terminate his Barca contract before securing his services. Terminating Suarez’s contract would reportedly cost the La Liga club £22m in severance.
Should Suarez join Juventus then he would likely take advantage of the Italian government’s growth decree that will allow the forward to save the club almost 50 per cent of his wages in two years.
Juve’s veteran striker Gonzalo Higuain is expected to leave for MLS or Inter Milan.
