Juventus Close to Sending Fabio Miretti to Beşiktaş

The reported loan with an option to buy is intended to free wage and registration space so Juventus can push to sign Franck Kessié.

Overview

  • Reports say Juventus and Beşiktaş have reached an advanced agreement for a loan of Fabio Miretti that would include an option to buy, with final paperwork still to be completed.
  • Italian outlets have reported the option to buy is about €15 million and that the clause could convert into an obligation under certain conditions.
  • Sources say Miretti is expected to travel to Turkey for a medical before signing, but neither club has issued an official announcement.
  • Juventus view removing Miretti’s wages and the amortisation charge from their accounts as a necessary step to create the budget and squad registration space for Franck Kessié.
  • The move follows Beşiktaş’s wider push into the Serie A market and would see an academy graduate who spent time on loan at Genoa seek regular first-team football in Turkey.
