Juventus midfielder Fabio Miretti finds himself at the centre of a club in transition, with new CEO Giovanni Carnevali reportedly tasked with generating ten million euros in player sales before the end of June — and the 22-year-old academy product among those whose future remains unresolved.
The timing matters. Carnevali arrives at a Juventus side that finished sixth in Serie A with 68 points from 37 matches, a respectable but not dominant campaign that leaves the club needing to balance the books while simultaneously strengthening the squad. In that environment, players on the fringes of Luciano Spalletti's plans become assets to be evaluated rather than retained by default. Miretti sits precisely in that grey zone.
His 2025-26 numbers tell a coherent story. Across 22 Serie A appearances, Miretti contributed one goal and two assists, carrying an average match rating of 6.70. Those are the numbers of a player who functions — who does not embarrass himself, who covers ground, who occasionally produces — but not of one who dominates or dictates. An AI overall rating of 58 out of 100, with a projected ceiling of 68, suggests a player whose ceiling is solid rather than elite. At 22, there is still time to close that gap, but the window for patience inside a club restructuring its wage bill is narrowing.
Bologna's interest, which surfaced in talks involving multiple players between the two clubs, offers Miretti a concrete alternative. The Emilian club has demonstrated in recent seasons that it can develop and showcase midfielders effectively, and a regular starting role there would give Miretti something Juventus has not consistently offered: centrality. For a player whose profile suggests he needs matches to grow rather than minutes off the bench, the destination matters as much as the decision.
Spalletti's Juventus is also scouting externally — World Cup strikers, defensive reinforcements from Bologna, and other targets — which signals that the squad rebuild is substantive rather than cosmetic. In that context, a midfielder rated 58 overall with modest attacking returns is not untouchable. He is, in the cold language of a June transfer window, a saleable asset at a manageable price point.
Miretti's path forward is not yet written, but the direction of pressure is clear: a club that needs funds, a coach assembling a new identity, and a player who has shown enough to attract interest but not enough to make himself indispensable. The next few weeks will determine whether he becomes part of Spalletti's project or the means by which that project is financed.
