Miretti talks with Bologna hit problems, Villarreal also interested

Новости спорта

Multiple reports suggest Juventus will sell Fabio Miretti, but Bologna and Villarreal are not close to agreeing a €14m transfer fee for the midfielder.

The player turns 23 in August and came up through their youth academy, so any sale would represent practically pure profit.

The Bianconeri need to make a big sale by June 30 to balance the books, especially after failing to qualify for the Champions League.

According to Sky Sport Italia, Sportitalia and more, Bologna are the club most interested in signing Miretti this summer and are in constant talks to whittle down the differences.

It is proving difficult, as Juventus want circa €12-14m for the player, already lower than the reported €20m, whereas the proposal is nowhere near that yet.

On top of the fee, there is also disagreement over the formula of the transfer, whether a loan with option or obligation to buy if certain conditions are met, or a permanent move.

Another club believed to be interested in the Italy international is Villarreal, but he would prefer to remain in Serie A, while Fiorentina are also keeping a close eye on developments.
