Juventus have confirmed the signing of Emil Holm on loan with an option to buy from Bologna, and Joao Mario’s temporary transfer to the Stadio Dall’Ara.
Rossoblu right-back Holm has moved to Turin on loan with an option to buy, while Joao Mario has travelled in the opposite direction on a temporary deal until the end of the season.
Juventus confirmed both deals with separate official statements on Monday.

“Joao Mario will play the second half of the 2025/26 Serie A season away from the Juventus Men’s First Team,” the Bianconeri said.
“The Portuguese winger will stay in Italy, though, as he will be joining Bologna on a loan deal until 30 June, 2026.
“Having arrived at Juventus last summer, the 26-year-old has taken to the pitch in our jersey thirteen times, between Serie A and the Champions League. It was during his European debut with Juventus – in the match against Borussia Dortmund – that he registered his first assist.
