Palermo close in on Miccoli
Juventus-owned Fabrizio Miccoli could be unveiled as a Palermo player as early as Monday morning, according to reports.
The Sicilians have been tracking the 'pocket striker’ for several weeks and newspapers suggest his transfer is ready to be completed.
Former Perugia and Fiorentina starlet Miccoli has spent the last two seasons on loan in Portugal with Benfica.
He made it clear he wanted a return to the peninsula, but after an initial interest in bringing him back to Juve, it seems Palermo promised a first team place.
It is claimed that the Rosanero have sealed an agreement worth just under £3.5m to take Miccoli to Sicily.
He will replace David Di Michele, who is expected to sign for Parma over the course of the summer.
Palermo are also said to be in advanced negotiations to hand defender Christian Terlizzi over to their local rivals Catania.
Franco Brienza is also in talks to make the move across Sicily to the Etnei.
