Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny is close to agreeing a £14million move to Italian champions Juventus.
The Poland international has excelled on loan from Arsenal at Roma where he kept 14 clean sheets last season prompting offers from Napoli, AC Milan and Inter.
However, the 27-year-old is prepared to move to Turin now where he will be primed to take over from veteran Gianluigi Buffon.
Szczesny has one year left at Arsenal yet, despite talk of a pre-contract agreement for January, he is prepared to make the move to Italy now.
