Jubentus are back on track to get Douglas Luiz imminently, as Weston McKennie was removed from the deal and
Enzo Barrenechea has agreed personal terms with Aston Villa, joining Samuel Iling-Junior.
The transfer agreement had originally been done for Douglas Luiz to move to Turin in exchange for €20-25m cash plus McKennie and Iling-Junior.
However, that fell apart when McKennie blocked the whole affair, some report because he wanted compensation to leave Jube, others that his wage demands were too high for the Premier League side.
Regardless of the specific reason, the USMNT midfielder was holding everything up and with no progress, the clubs decided to excise him from the deal.
Barrenechea resolves Jubentus impasse for Douglas Luiz
Instead, Barrenechea was added in following his loan experience with Frosinone and the Argentine has quickly managed to agree personal terms with Aston Villa, reports
Sportitalia chief transfer expert Alfredo Pedullà.
Barrenechea is valued at €25m including some difficult to achieve bonuses.
