Juventus have signed Miralem Pjanic from rivals Roma for fee of 32 million euros (£25million) , the Serie A champions have announced.
The versatile Bosnian midfielder, who can play in a deep holding role or further forward as a playmaker, asked to leave the Giallorossi last week after Juve declared their interest in his services.
And after passing a medical in Turin on Monday morning, Pjanic signed a five-year contract with the Bianconeri, who have won the Italian title five times in a row.
Pjanic, now 26, joined Roma from Lyon in 2011 and soon became a key player in the Giallorossi team, helping the capital club secure second-placed finishes in both 2014 and 2015.
He scored 10 goals, making 12 assists, as Luciano Spalletti's men settled for third behind Napoli last season, but Juve have now activated the player's release clause.
Pjanic, whose career in football began in Luxembourg with Schifflange, had reportedly been a target for Premier League clubs Manchester United and Chelsea.
