Rummenigge confirms Bayern Munich deal for Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal

Bayern Munich have announced a deal is now in place for Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal.

Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge confirmed the Chile international midfielder's move, pending a medical, at a press conference in Guangzhou, China where Bayern are currently on tour.

He said: "I can fundamentally confirm that we have reached an agreement with both parties, Juventus and the player. All that is lacking now is the medical and the signatures on the contract."

Vidal is currently on holiday in Miami after his successful participation in the Copa America and he is due in Munich at the weekend to undergo his medical.

Juve will rake in £26 million from the sale.
