Juventus Receives 15 Million Euro Cash Injection from Agnelli Family
Juventus has secured emergency funding from Exor, the Agnelli family's holding company, to address its financial uncertainty. Stay up-to-date with the latest news and updates on Juventus' financial situation.
Juventus has received a significant financial boost from its top shareholder, the Agnelli family, who have agreed to inject 15 million euros ($16 million) into the club. This move is aimed at addressing potential financial issues that may arise in the future, particularly after the recent departure of manager Thiago Motta.
The Italian club has been facing financial challenges, having required approximately 900 million euros in funding from its shareholders over the past six years. To mitigate these issues, Exor, the Agnelli family's holding company, has agreed to provide a 15 million euro cash contribution, which will be set against a potential future share issue.
Juventus has been undergoing a period of transition, having recently replaced Thiago Motta with Igor Tudor, a former player, after suffering two consecutive heavy defeats. The club's on-field performance has been disappointing, with Juventus currently standing fifth in Serie A. As a result, the club has been forced to reassess its financial prospects for the current quarter, the next quarter, and the 2025/26 financial year.
The financial year for Juventus runs from July 1st to June 30th, and the club is taking proactive measures to address potential financial challenges. The Agnelli family's injection of 15 million euros is a significant step in this direction, providing the club with a much-needed financial boost as it navigates a challenging period.

Juventus has confirmed that its overall targets under its 2027 plan remain unchanged, but a recent review has highlighted the potential need for a cash injection. The required amount could range from 15 million euros to as much as 10% of the club's market value, which stood at 1.14 billion euros at Friday's closing price.
In the event of a capital hike, Exor, the Agnelli family's holding company, has agreed to cover the cash call in full. However, Exor has guaranteed that it will invest at least enough to maintain its current stake in the club, ensuring that its ownership percentage remains unchanged. Juventus will make a final decision on the capital hike after the conclusion of the current season and the summer transfer campaign.
Despite returning to profitability in the first half of the fiscal year, thanks to its participation in the lucrative Champions League competition, Juventus does not expect to post a net profit for the full year. The club has faced significant challenges in recent times, including a 10-point deduction in the 2022/23 season and a ban from European competitions in the 2023/24 season due to accounting issues. Juventus has maintained that its accounting practices were in line with industry standards and has denied any wrongdoing.
