Juventus and LAFC are developing a bit of a connection.

Reigning MLS Cup champions LAFC is nearing a deal with Juventus for defender Lorenzo Dellavalle per Fabrizio Romano. Dellavalle will join Juventus legend and fellow center back Giorgio Chiellini, who joined the Yellow and Black last season.

Dellavalle, 19, came through the Juventus academy but never appeared for the first team.
