Juventus is on the verge of signing Grady Makiobo from Club Brugge. The 18-year-old central defender spent last season with the U18 team and faced serious competition for a breakthrough with the first team or even Club NXT. The deal is almost finalized, and Makiobo will first join Juventus' B team, which plays in Italy's third division. Other clubs were also interested in the Belgian youth international, but Club Brugge is unlikely to receive a transfer fee for him.
