CSKA Moscow winger Milos Krasic has confirmed Juventus have beaten Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool to his signature.

The 25-year old is expected to star for Serbia at World Cup 2010 and had long been linked with a £15 million switch to the Premier League. Speaking to Sportal.rs, he insisted he was on his way to Serie A instead.

"The negotiations between the two clubs are still going on," Krasic said.

"I am hoping that everything will conclude quickly.

"CSKA has set a price, and we shall see what happens, but I believe that there will not be any problems, and everything will be resolved a positive manner so that I can play for Juventus.

"Juventus are one of the biggest clubs in Italy, with many fans who follow them. For my career, a move such as this would be very important.

"I know that [Luigi] Del Neri is the new coach, and I am very happy for this. His 4-4-2 system adapts perfectly to my style of play."
