Raiola: 'De Ligt agreement with Juve'
Football Italia
“Matthijs de Ligt has agreed terms with Juventus and now it’s up to Ajax,” confirmed agent Mino Raiola, amid reports of PSG and Barcelona revivals.
It has been widely reported for over a week now that the Bianconeri secured a five-year contract with the defender worth around €9m per year plus bonuses.
The initial offer to his club was of €50-55m, which Juve and Raiola fully expected to be turned down, because it was just the start of negotiations.
“De Ligt has agreed terms with Juventus and now it’s up to Ajax on how they deal with this situation,” Raiola told De Telegraaf.
Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain are rumoured to be considering another attempt at personal terms, but Raiola insists there will be no Antoine Griezmann-style rebellion.
“That’s out of the question and so is arbitration, as it is not his style.”
Italian reports continue to maintain Juve hope to have De Ligt in Turin for a medical on Wednesday.
