According to the latest transfer rumours, the Argentinean midfielder is set to join the Bianconeri in January.
zoom - galleria Javier Mascherano to Juventus is a matter of days if the speculations surrounding the West Ham player are to be believed. What seemed like a deal which would go through in summer could actually become reality in the upcoming weeks as the transfer market re-opens in January.
The 22-year-old has found it difficult to acclimate himself to the fast-paced English football, like many other Argentinean players before him, therefore Mascherano could fit in perfectly into the more tactical Serie A football.
Didier Deschamps always held the young Argentinean midfielder in high esteem and has made it no secret that he wants to have him in Turin.
The Juventus directors are expected in London within the next 48 hours to seal the deal with an offer of 6 million Sterling.
If the deal does go through, then the Bianconeri will have to offload some youth players, including Marchionni who did not find too much space in the first eleven this season.
