Brazil international Dani Alves could be announced as a Juventus player early next week, with a report suggesting that he is due to undergo a medical on Monday.

Dani Alves will undergo a medical with Juventus on Monday ahead of joining from Barcelona, according to a report.

The Brazilian full-back has decided to leave Camp Nou after eight years at the club, citing the need for a new challenge as being his decision.

It has been claimed by Sky Sport Italia that the 33-year-old will arrive in Turin for tests with club staff over the next 24 hours, before official confirmation of the transfer is made later in the week.

Alves, who is now a free agent after activating a clause in his Barcelona contract to leave 12 months early, won 23 trophies during his time with the Catalan giants.

Juve have also signed Miralem Pjanic this summer from Roma, while Barca midfield ace Javier Mascherano is still thought to be high on the Serie A champions' wishlist.
