De Ligt completes €75m Juventus move from Ajax

Juventus have completed the €75 million (£68m/$84m) signing of centre-back Matthijs de Ligt from Ajax.

De Ligt agreed personal terms with Juventus last week that will see the defender earn €12m (£11m/$13m) per season - €8m in basic salary with €4m in bonuses.

And the 19-year-old has now finalised his move to Juve, who have seen off competition from a host of Europe's top clubs, including Barcelona, Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain.
