CalcioMercato can exclusively understand that Serie A giants Juventus are set to sign Joao Cancelo from Valencia.

The 23-year-old Portuguese full-back Cancelo was sent out on loan by Valencia to Inter last season. And while he did disappoint in the first half of the campaign, Cancelo became a key player of the side in the second half of the season and became a fans favorite at the club.

CalcioMercato exclusively understand that Cancelo is very close to a bianconeri switch and a meeting was held in Milan involving Fabio Paratici, a Valencia official and a representative from Cancelo's agency- Gestifute.

The meeting allowed the parties to strike a deal for Cancelo as Juventus have agreed to pay 38 million euros for the player, who really wants to move to Turin this summer.

Juventus will sign Cancelo on a one-year loan deal worth € 8 million. The Old Lady can make the player's move permanent next season for € 30 million.

Cancelo will earn 3 million euros a season at Juventus.
