Juventus is set to complete the transfer of Leandro Paredes today from PSG after a long summer pursuit.
They have identified the midfielder as their key target for the regista spot on their team and have been working hard to add him to the group.
However, they needed to offload one of their midfielders before he can join them and struck an agreement with Manchester United to sell Adrien Rabiot.
But the Frenchman could not agree a deal on personal terms with the Red Devils and the transfer collapsed.
United has since moved on even though they offered them Weston McKennie. Arthur Melo is another player they want to sell, but the Brazilian does not have many suitors because he is too injury prone.
Juventus is pushing on with their bid to sign Paredes, and Matchplug understands that he would join them on loan with an option to buy for 15m euros.
