Reports in Italy claim Juventus have agreed to sign top Brazilian prospects Gabriel and Guilherme Appelt.
No official announcement has yet been made, but Il Corriere dello Sport insists that a meeting held today in Turin between Juventus general manager Beppe Marotta, his right-hand man Fabio Paratici and the Appelt brothers' father who also acts as their agent was definitive.
Gabriel Appelt has been a revelation this season in Brazil, attracting interest from Liverpool and Inter.
The young central midfielder recently came to prominence by marking Ronaldinho out of a game between Resende and Flamengo.
His brother Guilherme is a year older and plays in attack.
Both will apparently arrive in Turin at the end of the season. Conveniently, they already possess European passports. [/FONT]
