Juventus are closing on a deal for Ajax captain Matthijs de Ligt.

With PSG discarded and Barcelona refusing to meet his personal demands, De Ligt is now discussing terms with Juve.

Sky Italia says De Ligt has agreed the outline to a contract with Juve.

And the Bianconeri have offered 55m up front with a further 10m in bonuses. However, it falls short of Ajax's valuation of 75m.

Juve are expected to return with an improved offer in the coming days.
