Agent confirms Juventus and Napoli talks over Miretti but Allegri ‘won’t resign’ without Jashari
Giovanni Branchini, agent of Fabio Miretti, confirms Napoli are in talks with Juventus over the Italian midfielder and insists Massimiliano Allegri ‘won’t resign’ if Milan fail to sign Ardon Jashari.
Miretti’s agent, Branchini, confirms Napoli are interested in his client and have already opened talks with Juventus over a possible deal.
Agent confirm Napoli talks over Miretti
“There’s no doubt that Napoli are interested in Miretti, we are waiting for the developments because the clubs have started talking. Miretti has been playing since he was 9; he’ll turn 22 in two days. He has played 100 Serie A games and 75 for Juventus, so he’s waiting for a decision to be taken,” Branchini told Sky Sport.
“It’s a privilege to be involved in talks between Napoli and Juventus. This is already an excellent result.”
Branchini is also the agent of Milan coach Allegri, and even if the Rossoneri are pushing to sign Jashari from Club Brugge, the Italian tactician won’t lose his sleep if the deal is not completed.
“Are you sure it’s a firm and insistent request from the coach? He [Jashari] was proposed, he passed the evaluation but he’s not the 11th player needed to field a full team,” Branchini added via TMW.
Allegri ‘won’t resign’ if Milan don’t sign Jashari
“Allegri hasn’t made such specific requests; he’s an interesting profile, and negotiations are ongoing, that’s true, but I’m not even sure that everyone agrees on this operation.
“Club Brugge and the player have been contacted, the offer is serious, but I don’t think Allegri will resign if Jashari doesn’t arrive.”
Milan sent an offer close to €40m, including add-ons, last week, but Club Brugge rejected it, while the player has already given the green light to move to San Siro, having agreed to personal terms with the Serie A giants.
“He’s an interesting young player. Milan want to sign him and I believe they’re working hard to do so,” Branchini concluded.
“But right now, Allegri is playing and working with the group he has, and he keeps saying that the players are giving him satisfaction for their efforts and dedication. We all know there are still a few pieces missing, but there’s no fear of not completing the squad. He’s convinced it will happen at the right time.”
Milan are returning to Italy after playing three pre-season friendlies in the Asia-Pacific Region. They lost 1-0 to Arsenal, but beat Liverpool 4-2 and Perth Glory 9-0.
