On Thursday, journalist Gianluca Di Marzio reported AFC Bournemouth have agreed a deal with Juventus to sign Dean Huijsen for €15m plus €3m as potential bonus payments.
He also stated the Serie A side will earn 10% of a future sale, and the medical and official announcement is left in the process.
Calciomrecato provide a background on the 19-year-old’s decision to pick Bournemouth over other clubs.
The defender waited until the last minute for Paris Saint-Germain to make a firm effort, but that didn’t happen. He received an offer from VfB Stuttgart but felt the Bundesliga ‘didn’t have the charm’ of the Premier League.
This favoured Bournemouth, and the report explains the ‘strong pressure exerted’ by the Cherries was ‘decisive’ to unblock the negotiations. The two clubs have now agreed a deal and the centre-back’s medical with the Premier League side is scheduled for Saturday.
Il Bianconero state the Spain U21 international has ‘defined every detail’ of the operation that’s needed to seal a move to Bournemouth.
He’s ready to travel as it’s claimed Huijsen ‘will fly to England’ on Saturday to carry out the medical examinations, and sign the contract with Bournemouth.
