After several days of negotiations, the capital club and Juventus have reached an agreement on a trade for the 28-year-old. Merlo continues by saying that the lawyers are exchanging paperwork on a deal that will involve a loan for the Argentine midfielder with a €15 million purchase obligation.

The Portuguese footballer Renato Sanches and Vitinha have both been added, but Paris Saint-Germain is still looking for another midfielder, possibly Fabián Ruiz. Paredes wants to make sure that he arrives for the FIFA World Cup in the greatest shape possible, which he would do while at Juventus. Paredes and former PSG winger Angel Di Maria would return to the Parc des Princes relatively fast if the trade were to go through because the Serie A team was drawn against the French powerhouses in the UEFA Champions League group stage.
