Chelsea Transfer: Brazilian midfielder set to replace Vidal at Juventus

According to Corriere dello Sport, Juventus are closing in on the transfer of Chelsea midfielder, Ramires.

Juventus have lost two of their starting central midfielders this summer and are keen to rebuild their midfield.

Andrea Pirlo and Arturo Vidal have both left the Turin giants in favour of MLS and Bayern Munich respectively.

Max Allegri is keen to build his midfield around Paul Pogba now and realises the importance of signing a workhorse for next season.

Vidal’s engine was key to Juventus’ midfield over the years and Allegri believes that Ramires could be the man to replicate that.
