Napoli have registered their interest in signing Juventus midfielder Fabio Miretti, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.

The summer overhaul is in full swing at Napoli, who have acquired Kevin De Bruyne, Noa Lang, Lorenzo Lucca and Sam Beukema.

With Frank Zambo Anguissa attracting interest from Chelsea, the Partenopei are eyeing more reinforcements in the midfield, which already boasts Scott McTominay, De Bruyne, Billy Gilmour and Stanislav Lobokta.

Miretti has caught Napoli’s attention following his impressive loan stint at Genoa.

Despite showing great promise with in the 2022/23 and 2023/24 seasons, Miretti failed to earn a prominent place in Juve’s squad.

However, he showcased his talent with Patrick Vieira’s Genoa last term, bagging three goals and three assists in 25 games.

Miretti could be on the move again this summer after learning that he is not in Juve manager Igor Tudor’s plans.

With the Bianconeri targeting high-profile midfielders like Sporting’s Morten Hjulmand, Miretti could struggle for game time if he stays in Turin this season.

Napoli are ready to take the Juventus academy graduate under their wings, but are baulking at the Old Lady’s valuation of €25-30 million.

A move to Napoli would help Miretti gain more spotlight and enhance his chances of returning to the Italian national team.

Miretti missed the recent U-21 European Championship for the Azzurri due to a shoulder injury.

The Serie A champions are prioritising a new winger, having already spent €28 million for Lang.

They have submitted a fresh proposal for Bologna’s Dan Ndoye, but Nottingham Forest are leading the race to sign the Swiss winger.

Liverpool’s Federico Chiesa and Manchester City’s Jack Grealish have also been linked with a move to Napoli.
