Juventus finances improve: Healthy transfer budget even without Champions League | OneFootball

Juventus will have meaningful funds available in the summer transfer window regardless of whether they compete in the Champions League or Europa League next season, with the club’s ongoing financial restructuring having significantly improved their position ahead of the 2026/27 campaign.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, missing out on the Champions League will cost the club between €55 and €60 million in lost revenue, a significant blow, but one the club are prepared to absorb.

The key driver is a dramatic reduction in operating costs over the past three to four years, with expenditure cut by around €150 million, and a further €10 million saved on player wages in the first half of this season alone.

Contract expirations, including Vlahovic, Kostic and Rugani, plus renewed deals with restructured amortisation schedules mean the 2026/27 financial year will begin with €20-30 million less in fixed costs.

Juventus to sign UEFA settlement agreement as financial controls pose no obstacle

On the regulatory front, Juventus are already compliant with UEFA’s squad cost ratio and labour cost rules.

A settlement agreement covering past losses will be signed by July, involving a fine of several million euros and an agreed recovery pathway over three to four years.

The club believe they can satisfy all financial fair play requirements without compromising their transfer ambitions, meaning the summer window can proceed without significant constraints beyond the need for sustainable management.
