Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani will more than likely sign a permanent deal with Italian giants Juventus.
The £20million Anfield flop returned to Italy on a season-long loan in the summer and it is expected that he will put pen to a permanent contract in Turin at the end of the season.
"Aquilani is a player of value and is doing very well, we're happy," said Juve boss Giuseppe Marotta.
"He has to feel comfortable because the fact that we took him on loan didn't mean that we had to evaluate him.
"His qualities have been known since he played in the youth of Roma and in the national team.
"In due time we'll meet with Liverpool and we will do everything to keep him with us."
