The Colombian has become a key part of the Bianconeri side since moving on loan in 2015, winning back-to-back league and cup doubles and helping them to secure a Champions League final berth for June 2 where they will take on Real Madrid.

Juventus have opted to make the deal permanent and keep the attacking midfielder in Seria A for at least another three seasons.

“The fee in line with the agreement is €20 million payable in three installments from the coming 2017-18 season,” read the statement.

“Juventus and the player have in turn signed a contract until June 2020,” it added.


Juventus offers Juan Cuadrado a fresh start after Chelsea stint


The Antioquia-born star moved to Chelsea in February 2015 after impressing with Italian side Fiorentina.

However, the former Independiente Medellin player failed to make a significant impact in London making just 15 appearances in all competitions before leaving on a loan deal to Juventus at the start of the 2015-16 season.

He has scored eight goals in 83 appearances for Massimiliano Allegri’s all-conquering side after been shown the exit door at Stamford Bridge.

Their weekend league triumph made Juve the first Italian side to win six Scudettos in a row.

Cuadrado now looks forward to a Champions League final showdown against his Colombian teammate James Rodriguez of Real Madrid.
