Juventus has officially completed a complex triple transfer operation with Aston Villa, involving Douglas Luiz’s move to Turin and the departures of Samuel Iling-Junior and Enzo Barrenechea to the Premier League club. Here’s a breakdown of the financial impact on Juventus’ accounts:
The official figures for the outgoing transfers are:
– Iling-Junior: €14 million, payable over four years, with potential bonuses up to €3 million
– Barrenechea: €8 million, also payable over four years, with potential bonuses up to €3 million
These sales will generate capital gains of approximately €13.4 million for Iling-Junior and €6.7 million for Barrenechea, totaling around €20.1 million on Juventus’ balance sheet for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
Additionally, Juventus will save on amortization costs for both players and Iling-Junior’s salary, amounting to about €2.67 million.
The incoming transfer of Douglas Luiz is valued at €50 million, payable over four financial years. With a reported five-year contract worth €5 million net per season (approximately €9.25 million gross), Luiz’s cost to Juventus for the 2024/25 season is estimated at €19.25 million.
In summary, for the 2024/25 season, the costs associated with Douglas Luiz’s acquisition will be largely offset by the financial gains from the sales of Iling-Junior and Barrenechea. This strategic move allows Juventus to strengthen their midfield while maintaining financial balance in their accounts.
