Khedira confirms Liverpool target will join Juve
Howedes has rejected a chance to move to Liverpool and Spartak Moscow in order to join the Old Lady who has now reached an agreement with both the player and Schalke 04. Howedes will be moving to Juventus on loan with option to buy set to € 15 million.
“I talked to Benedikt and I am happy he will join Juventus”, Khedira said.
“He is a leader and he always gives the best, he will be very important for us. Things will be easier with him because he can cover many roles in defence. He will have to adapt to life in here. Italian football is not easy. Trainings are tough and I took a while to settle in well too. Trainings with [Juventus boss] Allegri are the toughest I’ve ever done.”
Calciomercato.com has exclusively reported that Howedes will land in Italy today and will have his medical with the Old Lady tomorrow.
