Juventus have successfully signed Argentina's Nicolas Gonzalez from Fiorentina, in a deal potentially worth €38 million ($42.5 million). This strategic move is part of the Turin-based club's ongoing efforts to restructure their team under new coach Thiago Motta. The transfer agreement involves an initial season-long loan for €8 million, followed by a mandatory purchase for €25 million and additional bonuses of up to €5 million based on specific sporting achievements.
Juventus confirm definitive acquisition of Gonzalez
Juventus have confirmed the definitive acquisition of Gonzalez, stating that "Given the high probability of the above conditions being achieved... this transaction qualifies as a definitive acquisition effective from today for a total amount of €33 million." The 26-year-old winger is set to join Juve after a three-year stint at Fiorentina, where he was instrumental in leading his team to runner-up positions in both the Europa Conference League and the Italian Cup.
Gonzalez's international career and future at Juventus
Gonzalez has an impressive international career, having represented Argentina 39 times and scored five goals. He played a key role in Argentina's victories in Copa America (2024 and 2021 editions). His debut for Juventus is expected next weekend when they face Roma. This acquisition follows Juventus's other summer signings as part of their squad revamp strategy under Motta.
