Juventus have reportedly agreed a fee with Ajax for defender Matthijs de Ligt.
The 19-year-old has just enjoyed a hugely impressive season with the Dutch giants, who came within seconds of reaching the Champions League final.
However, it has long been accepted that the Netherlands international would sign for a new club this summer, providing that any suitors were prepared to pay Ajax's asking price.
Personal terms were allegedly agreed between De Ligt and Juventus earlier this month, and Sky Sports News says that the Serie A champions have finally given the green light to a £67.5m deal.
The report adds that a transfer is expected to be finalised once De Ligt has undergone a medical in Italy on Wednesday.
Juventus have edged out the likes of Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona and Manchester United to sign the youngster.
