'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 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.

Ivan Zazzaroni: Inter Milan To Make Atalanta New Cash + Player Offer For Ademola Lookman
Atalanta wantaway star Ademola Lookman is inching ever closer to joining Inter Milan after an exhausting transfer saga. According to Ivan Zazzaroni, the director of Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews, the player has left Bergamo. It's now a near-certainty that Ademola Lookman will not play for Atalanta next season. Despite the club's reluctance to lose another star player after selling Mateo Retegui, Lookman has other plans. Indeed, the 27-year-old is hellbent on joining the San Siro club by the end of the summer. Furthermore, he has already made his intentions clear by refusing to take part in pre-season training. On top of that, he has removed all social media posts in the Atalanta shirt. However, Lookman's actions have not fazed La Dea, who are seemingly sticking to their guns. They won't sell their prize asset for less than €50 million. As such, they've already turned down two offers from Inter, including a €45 million bid last time out. Ivan Zazzaroni Insists Inter Milan Will Make New Offer for Atalanta Ace Ademola Lookman TURIN, ITALY – MARCH 09: Ademola Lookman of Atalanta celebrates scoring his team's fourth goal during the Serie A match between Juventus and Atalanta at the Allianz Stadium on March 09, 2025 in Turin, Italy. (Photo by) Despite two failed attempts, Inter won't give up on their hopes of signing the former RB Leipzig star. On the contrary, they're piecing together a new offer that will reportedly include a counterpart. Indeed, Inter are hoping that a player-plus-cash bid would change Atalanta's mind. 'Inter are ready to offer €46–47 million plus a youngster for Lookman,' Zazzaroni claims. 'This will truly be their final offer. 'The player has physically left Bergamo, and at the moment, no one knows where he is.' Furthermore, Zazzaroni insists the relationship between the clubs remains phenomenal. 'The relationship between Inter and Atalanta remains excellent. 'Inter are now waiting for a response from Percassi and are willing to go up to €50 million – but not a cent more – including a young player as part of the deal.'

Report – Liverpool Among Several Premier League Suitors For Inter Milan Top Defensive Target
Liverpool are among several Premier League clubs interested in signing Parma starlet Giovanni Leoni. According to Sportitalia via FCInterNews, the Reds' interest is serious amid rumors linking the player with Inter Milan. Giovanni Leoni is arguably the most coveted young defender in European football. Indeed, half of Serie A has already set their sights on the 18-year-old. In addition to Inter, AC Milan, Juventus, and Napoli have emerged as potential suitors. Liverpool Among Several Premier League Clubs Keen on Giovanni Leoni UDINE, ITALY – MARCH 01: Giovanni Leoni of Parma reacts at the end of the Serie A match between Udinese and Parma at Stadio Friuli on March 01, 2025 in Udine, Italy. (Photo by) Despite attracting interest from top Serie A clubs, Leoni could swap Ennio Tardini for the Premier League. While Liverpool remain the likeliest candidates to lure the teenager to England, they're not alone. Indeed, some other Premier League sides have inquired about the young gun, though talks were mostly informal. Meanwhile, Parma chiefs must be rubbing their hands. Though they had initially expected to earn around €30 million from Leoni's transfer, the price has suddenly gone up. Now, the Crusaders demand €40 million to green-light Leoni's departure, which looks inevitable.

Pisa capitulate to Bayer Leverkusen and Genoa held by Japan
Pisa were beaten 3-0 by Bayer Leverkusen in a pre-season friendly, while Genoa played a 1-1 draw against the Japanese university national team. The preparations continue for the new Serie A campaign and there are several teams in action today. Pisa defeated in Leverkusen LEVERKUSEN, GERMANY – AUGUST 05: Alejo Sarco of Bayer 04 Leverkusen battles for possession with Matteo Tramoni of Pisa SC (R) during the pre-season friendly match between Bayer 04 Leverkusen and Pisa SC at BayArena on August 05, 2025 in Leverkusen, Germany. (Photo by) Alberto Gilardino's Pisa gave themselves an extremely tough fixture by taking on German giants Bayer Leverkusen, who are just days away from their first official match of the season. It was therefore not much of a surprise that they were swept aside 3-0 with all the goals in the first half from Robert Andrich on a set play routine, Christian Kofane's counter-attack and Exequiel Palacios. The Serie A newcomers tried to fight back, especially after Bayer Leverkusen saw Edmond Tapsoba sent off at the 54th minute, but they were unable to put a dent in the result. Genoa played out a 1-1 draw against the Japanese university students' national team. Ruslan Malinovskyi had put the Grifone in front by converting a penalty, while Lorenzo Colombo rattled the frame of the goal. Shinoda got the equaliser when a through ball allowed him to spring the offside trap.
