Juventus send Miretti to Besiktas as door opens for Kessie arrival

Fabio Miretti is on the verge of joining Besiktas, with Juventus hoping to conclude the midfielder’s departure on Tuesday.

Miretti exit unlocks Kessie move for Juventus

The sale is the precondition for Juventus completing a deal for Franck Kessie. The former Milan midfielder has favoured a move to Turin for several weeks and would arrive on a free transfer, but the club need to clear space in the squad first.

Miretti came through the Juventus academy and has been in and out of the first team, spending part of last season on loan at Genoa. He did not feature in Sunday’s 1-0 win at Frosinone, with Luciano Spalletti fielding Manuel Locatelli and Douglas Luiz in central midfield and turning to Teun Koopmeiners from the bench.

Besiktas have been active in Serie A circles this window, having already poached Dusan Vlahovic on a free from the Bianconeri. Vincenzo Italiano’s side are also set to sign Ernest Poku, whose move to Fiorentina collapsed, and have made an improved offer for Frosinone winger Fares Ghedjemis.
