Juventus sign goalkeeper Di Gregorio from Monza

Juventus have signed Italian goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio from fellow Serie A club Monza, the Turin-based side said on Friday.

Juventus said they had agreed a deal with Monza that would see them pay out 18 million euros ($19.50 million) for Di Gregorio.

The 26-year-old, a product of Inter Milan's youth academy, kept 12 clean sheets for Monza in the 2023-24 season.

"Michele joins Juventus as the winner of the Best Goalkeeper prize in Serie A last season, which was earned through his excellent reactions between the posts for Monza," the Serie A club said in a statement.

"He is an all-round goalkeeper, though. Beyond his shot-stopping abilities, he is good with his feet too, making him a prime example of a modern goalkeeper."
