London - French international Patrick Vieira's expected move to Serie A champions Juventus from Arsenal is apparently a done deal and will be finalised later Thursday, local media has reported.
Arsenal confirmed earlier this week that Juve had approached the London club with a bid for the 29-year-old midfielder, who was a target for Real Madrid last summer.
English media report a transfer figure in the region of 26 million euros while Italian sources say 14 million is more accurate.
La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Vieira, who has two years left on his Arsenal contract, will be given a five-year deal at the Serie A club with annual wages of 3.5 million euros.
