Serie A side Juventus have been keeping a close eye on the situation of Franck Kessie for many weeks now. The deal is edging closer to completion.
Get Italian Football News covered last week that Fabio Miretti’s move to Besiktas was holding the key for the Ivorian’s move to the Bianconeri.
Tuttomercatoweb report that a deal is close to completion. Juve met the midfielder’s agents earlier today to discuss a move and they decided to make a decisive push.
Even before this, telephonic conversation had taken place regularly between the parties. Kessie will, as a result, sign a two-year deal with the option for a third and he will earn €4.5 million per season.
Miretti’s move to Turkey has indeed played a big role in this. Now, Juve are awaiting the exit of Jonathan David to make sure that they can sign another striker, with Joshua Zirkzee yet to make a final decision about his next club.
