Gianluca Di Marzio reports that The Bianconeri are aiming to structure the deal as a high-value loan with a purchase option that could become mandatory under certain conditions. The total investment is expected to be in the range of €30 to 35 million .
Todibo has recently turned down an offer from West Ham, indicating his preference for a move to Juventus. This development has boosted the Italian club’s confidence in finalizing the transfer.
