Juventus reach agreement with Fiorentina player

Current Fiorentina custodian Norberto Neto looks set to sign for Serie A league leaders Juventus, who have beaten off competition from English Premier League giants Liverpool for his signature.

The Brazilian has been replaced at the Viola by Romanian keeper Ciprian Tatarusanu, after failing to agree to a new deal at the Stadio Artemio Franchi.

According to Sky Sport Italia, Neto will put pen-to-paper on a four year contract and has accepted that he will be cover for Bianconeri legend, Gianluigi Buffon.  The report also suggests he will be earning around €2 million per season whilst at the Juventus Stadium.

Neto is expected to line up this evening against his potential new employers, as Fiorentina travel to Turin to face Juventus in the Coppa Italia.
