Weston McKennie, one of the United State’s most talented young soccer stars, is on the verge of completing a $25 million move to Juventus.

The Serie A club confirmed the 22-year-old had landed in Turin on Wednesday night to complete a medical ahead of his switch from Bundesliga club Schalke.

Should he pass, he will become Andrea Pirlo’s first signing as Juventus coach following his appointment in early August.

Italian sports journalist Fabrizio Romano reports McKennie will initially join Juventus on a one year loan worth $4 million, with the club holding a $21 million option to buy.

McKennie, who lived in Germany as a young child, began his career in the youth ranks of FC Dallas before joining Schalke in 2016, where he has since made 91 appearances and established himself as a regular starter in midfield.

Last term, he made 28 appearances in the Bundesliga and scored three goals as Schalke finished the season in 12th place.

At international level, McKennie has made 19 appearances for the United States, scoring six goals. In October 2019, he scored the fastest hat-trick in the national team's history, scoring three goals in just 13 minutes against Cuba.

Correction: The URL of this story incorrectly says that McKennie's transfer is worth $33 million, rather than the correct amount, $25 million.
