and when I do cloning folder structure will be
/var/www/sites/mysite/mysite

git clone accepts a last argument that is the destination directory, it is by default the name of the project but you can change it. In your case you probably want simply .:
$ git clone origin-url .
But note that, from man git-clone:
Cloning into an existing directory is only allowed if the directory is empty.
