Reports: Juventus in advanced talks to sign Franck Kessié after Miretti loan frees wage space

Multiple outlets report Juventus have moved into direct, intensive negotiations with Franck Kessié’s representatives in Milan as they push to close a free transfer. Club executives Giovanni Carnevali and Frederic Massara are said to have held in‑person meetings; the club has reportedly offered a two‑year contract with an option for a third, worth around €4.5-5m net per season plus bonuses. Fabrizio Romano is cited saying Juventus do not need further departures to finalise the move after Fabio Miretti’s loan to Beşiktaş, which has been reported with a buy option (figures reported vary between about €10m‑plus and €15m). AS Roma are also reported to have made a late approach for Kessié.
