The 30-year-old centre-back has come to terms on shock move from Turn to Milan after seven successful seasons with Juventus

AC Milan reached an agreement with Juventus for the transfer of Leonardo Bonucci, the Rossoneri announced Friday.

After seven years with the Bianconeri, Bonucci is set to leave Milan to join their Serie A rivals for a €40 million fee, reaching a reported five-year deal with Vincenzo Montella's side.

The 30-year-old defender arrived in Milan earlier in the day, and the move will become official pending a medical.

The Rossoneri initially offered €30m for the 30-year-old, but Juve refused to accept less than €40m for a centre-back who played a key role in their Serie A and Coppa Italia success and journey to the Champions League final last season.
