Udinese-Juventus, Mandragora set to take medical

It's nearly official: Rolando Mandragora will become the newest player for Udinese. The former Crotone player, owned by Juventus, is ready to join the Udine club. He is scheduled to arrive in town this afternoon for medical visits and to sign his contract.

This is a good signing for Udinese, who snatched the player despite strong competition from other clubs. They'll sign Mandragora to a definitive contract, with a price of €20 million. Juventus, however, maintains a €24 million buy-back option for the player.
