Juventus have signed goalkeeper Nicola Leali from Brescia. The 19-year-old, who is considered one of the most promising goalkeepers in Italy, has put pen to paper on a five-year contract with the Turin giants.

"This is a dream come true," Leali said on the club's official website, juventus.com. "To join such a prestigious club at my age is extremely gratifying and a great motivation to keep developing further.

"Being part of the same club as a champion like Gigi Buffon is hugely satisfying, but it also makes me realise how much I will have to work for the opportunity to repay the trust placed in me."

Leali made 16 appearances for Serie B side Brescia last season.
