Juventus close to loaning Marley Ake to Benevento | OneFootball

Serie B side Benevento are closing in on a loan deal with Juventus involving Frenchman Marley Aké.

The Bianconeri have already given the green light for the 22-year-old’s departure, according to TuttoMercatoWeb’s Marco Conterio. Juventus hope that Benevento will be able to offer the winger more minutes in Serie B. Aké only featured in four Serie C matches this season for the junior side and is yet to accept the move.

Aké joined Juventus in January 2021 from Marseille, a move that was also under investigation in the recent capital gains saga. Last season, he had made four appearances in Serie A for the Bianconeri and has not featured for the club since then and the move to Benevento will be his first stint away from the club.

Before joining Juve, the defender had featured in 18 Ligue 1 games for Marseille, who executed a swap deal for him.
