Serie A giants Juventus are close to signing Nice midfielder Khephren Thuram and the move is going to close next week.

It seems all but likely that the two Thuram brothers will be plying their trade in the Serie A and for two arch-rivals, with Marcus already at Inter.

Gianluca di Marzio has reported that Thuram will be Juve’s second signing of the summer and the move is very, very close. He had one year left on his Nice contract, convincing Juve to move for him right away and they are signing him on a cut-price fee.

Nice will earn €20 million plus bonuses from the move and they will earn bonuses on the basis of how much he plays and on the basis of Juve’s own performances. The next will be closing next week, with Douglas Luiz having already joined the Old Lady from Aston Villa in a swap plus cash deal.
