Juventus managing director Giuseppe Marotta has hinted that Arturo Vidal will leave the club sooner rather than later.

Now that issue has been resolved, Rummenigge would welcome Vidal to Munich with open arms.
Italian champions Juventus’ footballer Arturo Vidal is close to signing for German giants Bayern Munich though the deal has not yet been finalised.
Roberto Mancini has played down fears over new signing Jeison Murillo after he picked up an injury during Inter’s pre-season friendly defeat to Bayern Munich on Tuesday. I’d also emphasize that the player had a contract ending in 2017, while they’re offering him a five-year contract, and that’s very important for his future. He spent four years with Bayer Leverkusen before moving to Juventus in a deal costing them €10.5million (then worth just over £8million) in 2011.
Vidal knows German football.
The Spaniard insisted that Gotze is firmly in his plans for next season, indicating towards his willingness to keep the player at the Allianz Arena.
His spell at Juventus was highly successful, culminating in four Serie A titles and a Champions League Final back in May.
Vidal enjoyed further success with his national team as Chile went on to win the Copa America beating Argentina.
Guardiola has replaced Bastian Schweinsteiger with a player who is more combative and is better going forward, even if he may not have the same creativity and passing range. “We don’t sell for less than we ask for explicitly, as we did with [Carlos] Tevez, [Andrea] Pirlo, [Angelo] Ogbonna and Vidal”.

“Gotze definitely fits that profile, but he’s a Bayern Munich player, so we haven’t held any concrete talks”. After four fantastic seasons with Juventus, Vidal won’t be in black and white stripes anymore.
