After the capture of Argentina international Carlos Tevez, Serie A champions Juventus are expected to make a formal announcement on the signing of Nigerian defender Angelo Ogbonna this coming Monday.

La Stampa says the Torino center-back has agreed personal terms. What remains is for both Turin based clubs to reach a compromise on the player's transfer fee.

All things being equal, the 25 - year - old defender will put pen to paper on a five - year contract, with wages of 1.8 million euros per season including bonuses.

Angelo Ogbonna has been on the books of Torino for the past 11 years, playing over 120 matches for The Bull.

His contract with Torino was due to expire in June 2016.
