De Ligt arrives in Turin to complete Juventus move



The defender is set to complete his move to the Serie A champions, with the Italian club landing one of the most coveted young players in the world 



Matthijs de Ligt has arrived in Turin to put the finishing touches on his move to Juventus. 
The 19-year-old was one of the most sought-after players in the world following his stellar season with Ajax, where he captained the club to the Champions League semi-finals and the Eredivisie title. 
Final discussions between the two clubs took place over the weekend, with the Italians landing a deal for the young centre-back that will reportedly see him sign on for five years.



"Hello, Bianconeri, this is Matthijs. I'm really happy to be here," he said to the Juventus cameras upon his arrival.
Juventus will be pleased to land one of the club's top targets for the summer, with the Italian side having gotten a first-hand look at the talented Dutch star when the sides met in the Champions League quarter-finals.
While Juventus did manage to score in both legs against De Ligt and Ajax, it was the teenager who had the last laugh, scoring the winner in the second leg to send his side through to the semi-finals at the expense of the Italian champions.

Basketball Taught Me How to Live On the impermanence of youth, health, and my crappy ankle       Eric Stinton Jul 2 Photo: Mint Images RF/Getty Images It happened again one night when my fiancée and I were walking home from work. One second we were side by side, mid-conversation about our days, and suddenly she was alone in the darkness. I dropped abruptly, as though I’d been hit by a sniper. Andrea took a few steps before noticing I was on the ground behind her. I was holding my right ankle and biting back curses into muffled groans. It wasn’t my first sprained ankle. The pain was familiar, the procedure instinctive. I untied my shoelaces, then retied them extra tightly to put pressure on the impending swelling. I pushed myself upright and took a few cautious steps, finding the pavement with my heel before rolling the rest of my foot flat to the ground. I limped and hobbled the rest of the walk home. We looked lik...

And by modern, I mean since Coach K took over. Coach K is of course legendary Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski, who has led the Blue Devils’ charge since taking the reins in 1980. During those four decades, Coach K’s Duke has made 12 Final Fours and cut down the nets five different times, in 1991, 1992, 2001, 2010, and 2015. During that time, Duke has seen a ton of basketball talent come through those doors on Tobacco Road. An incredible 55 different Blue Devils have played in the NBA since Coach K showed up, and plenty more are on the way. That includes Zion Williamson, R.J. Barrett, and Cam Reddish, all lottery picks in the 2019 NBA Draft, and it will surely include more names to come....
