Fabrizio Romano reports that Juventus have secured an agreement in principle to sign Turkish right‑back Mehmet Zeki Çelik from AS Roma on a free transfer. The deal follows a verbal pact with Roma that has now been superseded, with the player reportedly in Turin as the agreement is finalised.

Onside’s model values Çelik at €14m, indicating a pure value gain for Juventus given the free‑transfer nature of the move. The platform assigns a 95% confidence level to the reported agreement, reflecting strong corroboration across the limited coverage.

The story is currently being followed by a single outlet, with the transfer poised to enhance Juventus’s defensive options pending completion of the formalities.
