Juventus sign Romulo Souza Orestes on loan from Verona

Juventus have signed midfielder Romulo Souza Orestes from Hellas Verona on loan with an option to buy.

The Brazilian, who is now at his ninth club, will cost the Turin outfit €1m (£800,000) with the possibility of a permanent move worth €6m (£4,8m).

This option is automatically exercised should Romulo play in at least 60% of matches, according to Goal.com.

The Serie A champions begin their title defence away to Chievo Verona on August 30.
