Napoli are edging closer to an agreement with Juventus for midfielder Fabio Miretti, as Sky Sport Italia report they offered €14m.
The 22-year-old is a product of the Bianconeri youth academy who spent last season on loan at Genoa, where he made 25 Serie A appearances, scoring three goals and providing three assists.
His agent Giovanni Branchini confirmed last week that there had been some negotiations between the two clubs.
Miretti targeted by Napoli for midfield
Now Sky Sport Italia transfer pundit Gianluca Di Marzio claims that an offer has been made worth €14m.
It remains to be seen if it will be sufficient to get a deal over the line, but Napoli are said to be increasingly optimistic that it can be achieved.
Miretti only celebrated his 22nd birthday yesterday and his contract with Juventus runs to June 2028.
He has one senior cap for Italy, which was achieved in November 2022.
Another candidate for the Napoli midfield is Giovanni Fabbian of Bologna.
