'AS' reports that Wolves and Juventus are close to reaching an agreement. It would see Raul Jimenez move to Serie A for 80 million euros. Wolves wanted 100 and the Italians were only offering 50 initially, but now it seems like they will agree on 80.

Raul Jimenez is close to signing for Juventus. 'AS' says that an agreement has nearly been completed and that Wolves will get 80 million euros. That is the result of negotiations which have been lengthy. 

The Premier League outfit began asking for 100 million euros, the Italians responded with an offer of 50 and after long conversations, the final price will be 80. It is a figure which is greater than his market value. 

Juventus need to complete the deal because Arsenal are also interested and they could take him off them if they do not get the job soon. 

If the move is completed, Italy will become the fith country Raul Jimenez will have played in during his career. He began in Mexico, he travelled to Spain, then went to Portugal and has ended up making a name for himself all across the world because of his excellent performances for Wolves.
