Official | Benedikt Höwedes joins Juventus on season-long loan

Schalke confirm that Benedikt Höwedes has joined Juventus on a season-long loan. Reports suggest that the Italian champions have paid €3.5m with a €13m option to buy, that turns compulsory if he plays 25+ games.

The World Cup winner was stripped of his captaincy last month, which lead to speculation over his Schalke future. Liverpool were the first club to show interest before Juventus won that race.
