Italian Media: Huntelaar To Join Juventus In The Summer

Besides Edgar Davids, who was a huge success in Turin from 1997 to 2004, Juventus have in general not linked up with Dutch footballers throughout their illustrious history. But it seems that things are about to change.

As La Gazzetta Dello Sport reports today, Rafael Van Der Vaart is not the only Dutch star packing his bags for a summer move to the capital of Piedmont, since Klaas-Jan Huntelaar is expected to keep him company.

Club president Giovanni Cobolli Gigli had openly admitted that La Vecchia Signora were negotiating with Ajax for the 24-year-old prolific striker, talking to Il Corriere Dello Sport back on December 7.

Done deal

And La Gazzetta Dello Sport reveals today that the Italian giants struck a deal with the player’s agent, Arnold Oosterveen, as early as last August to sign him at the end of this season.

The sports daily with a readership that exceeds the three-million mark insists that the Amsterdam-based club are prepared to let their star striker go for an amount between 15 and 18 million euros.

A former PSV Eindhoven, De Graafschap and Heerenveen man, Huntelaar joined Ajax in January 2006 for a fee of nine million plus future player incentives.

Needless to say he’s been an instant hit, scoring a breathtaking 74 goals in just 92 appearances!
