Report: Alexis Sanchez close to Juventus move

Barcelona forward Alexis Sanchez will reportedly join Juventus at the end of the season.

The Chilean international, who joined Barca from Udinese in 2011, has scored 18 times in 32 league games for the Spanish champions this season.

However, the 25-year-old has been left out of the big matches this season and it is understood that he is keen on a return to Italy.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, negotiations are ongoing between the two clubs, with a deal expected to be confirmed in the coming weeks.

Sanchez spent five years in Italy with Udinese before moving to the Camp Nou.
