Milan's Marco Borriello very close to joining Juventus

Milan's Marco Borriello could join Juventus on a loan deal with the option to make it permanent.

Milan striker Marco Borriello is expected to complete a move to Juventus by the end of the transfer window after the clubs agreed a deal on Monday, according to Il Corriere dello Sport.

The Bianconeri started their Serie A campaign with a 1-0 loss to Bari on Sunday, looking short of firepower. Meanwhile, Borriello is said to be considering his future after Zlatan Ibrahimovic's arrival at San Siro from Barcelona. The striker wants to make a move before the transfer window closes.

The two Italian giants have reach an accord, with the player initially moving to Turin on loan with the option to purchase at the end of the season, although no details on a potential transfer fee have been released.

Now all that remains is for the 28-year-old to agree personal terms with the Bianconeri in order for the move to be completed.

Borriello scored 14 goals in Serie A last season, finishing the club's top goalscorer in Serie A.
