Jaka Bijol- Medical soon.
According to Fabrizio Romano the 26 year old international is due to travel over from Udinese imminently for a medical.
A £19mil fee has been agreed.
He is a Russian Super Cup winner and originally a defensive midfielder before transitioning to centre back 4 or so years ago.
Highly experienced he's been a first team regular since he was 18 and has over 300 appearances to his name including 60+ caps for Slovenia.
He is regarded as a proper defender, aggressive, good in the air, good positioning and not afraid to put a tackle in (does mean he can be a but of a walking yellow card)
Is a suggestion he may not be the best with the ball at his feet but whether that is the case I don't know (you'd need to find out how Udinese play etc).
