BREAKING: Juan Jesus to AS Roma is a done deal, announcement imminent
Juan Jesus could join his new teammate in Pinzolo tomorrow.
Juan Jesus failed to live up to promises last season with Roberto Mancini who found in Miranda and Murillo one of the best defensive partnership in the league.
The 25-year-old centre back could only rack up 23 appearances in all competitions last term but Spalletti thinks extremely high of the Brazilian defender especially because he can play both in the middle of the defence and as left-back.
Juan Jesus will initially replace Antonio Rudiger who suffered a serious knee injury a few months ago and will only return to the pitch in December.
