Juventus director Maurizio Scanavino says that the €200 million capital increase for Juventus is a further sign of the Agnelli family commitment to the club. The Bianconeri announced yesterday that they had approved a financial statement for the 2022-23 season that shows a loss of €123.7 million, a reduction from the -€239.3 million that was recorded for the previous year. The news also included an announcement from the club that there would be a further €200 million capital increase.
Speaking to Sky Sport Italia, Scanavino explained the Old Lady’s financial situation and steps the club are taking to make a further reduction in debt for the future:
“This important capital increase is a confirmation of the Agnelli family’s commitment and bond with Juventus. A bond that has lasted 100 years and that we are celebrating, the culmination will be Tuesday at the event at the Pala Alpitour for a big celebration of the Juventus family with many legends.
“The increase comes at a very important time, the non-participation in the Champions League could have put the club in difficulty. So instead we can plan with serenity and decision for the near future.
“These are important resources to be included in a project that must include sustainability and competitiveness. If we start from the summer market that has just ended, the most representative and valuable players were confirmed, important confirmations such as Rabiot, the redemption of Milik and the purchase of Cambiaso and Weah.
“For the future, the sporting project shared with the coach and DS will see a mix of experienced champions who can give performance continuity with young talents that will emerge from the Next Gen or that we will go to identify on the market.
“With Allegri and Giuntoli we are aligned on goals and ambitions, the desire is to return to being winners as soon as possible. The idea is to proceed step by step and with our feet on the ground, from an economic point of view qualifying for the Champions League is something fundamental, also because the next edition will have a more important level of revenue than the current one.
“Pogba? I’m Sorry for the boy, now we are waiting to hear from him and his entourage on how they will proceed.”
