Juventus are close to completing the signing of 16-year-old forward Matias Soule from Argentine side Velez Sarsfield, Goal can confirm.
Soule has been monitored by a number of top clubs around Europe and, while there are still some issues to be ironed out, the Serie A champions are in pole position to secure his signature.
An EU passport will need to be organised, but the club have been given the go-ahead by Soule’s family to finalise all the relevant details. His family are set to travel to Italy as the deal nears completion.
