Sami Khedira close to Juventus transfer

Sami Khedira have reportedly snubbed interest from the Premier League to join Italian champions Juventus.

The German international is out of contract this summer, when his contract expires at Real Madrid.

The 28-year-old has been constantly linked with a move to the Premier League since January, with Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea keen on his signature.

However, Juventus' club director Beppe Marotta has revealed that the Old Lady are close to Khedira' signature, and will make an official announcement once the player puts pen to paper on the transfer agreement.
