Juventus are set to depart with Chilean midfielder Arturol Vidal after aquiring the services of German international Sami Khedira from Real Madrid.
After selling Schweinsteiger to Manchester United, Bayern are looking for fresh additions to their squad as they are looking all set complete a deal for the Chilean midfielder.
Arturo Vidal has openly made his move clear as he said: “I am going to Bayern Munich.” Vidal told Chilean newspaper La Carta.
The deal is expected to be €36 million with an extra €4 million to be paid as bonuses.
