Prof. Bava Reveals: ‘Sacking Thiago Motta Could Lead to Budget Fallout Until 2027! Is Giuntoli’s Future Safe?’
The current state of Juventus is rather precarious, marked not only by sporting concerns but by significant financial pressures. Recent performances have raised alarm bells ahead of the future, particularly regarding the fate of Thiago Motta and the club's broader strategies. As such, one cannot ignore the economic dimensions at play, a sentiment echoed by Professor Fabrizio Bava during an interview on the YouTube channel IlBiancoNero.com. Bava elaborated on the potential for a capital increase, as well as the contributions of Giuntoli and the recent injection of capital from the new shareholder, Tether.
Objectives: “Our aim is to learn to stand on our own two feet, striving for a structural profit by 2027. A Champions League qualification is integral to this plan; without it, we’re simply not going to see those salaries met. Juventus has managed to secure a spot every year, and failing to do so this season would not only be a sporting disaster but an economic one as well. For instance, the absence of a main sponsor tied to non-qualification makes for an unappealing proposition for potential partners.”
Giuntoli's Work: “His evaluation shifts dramatically depending on the situation. It’s tough to assess his contributions without a Champions League berth; nevertheless, he has revitalized the squad while slashing salaries over €7 million, apart from Vlahovic, whose wage is set in stone. Significant cost reductions have been achieved, even as the outlay remains high due to the demand for lower-priced talents. The crux is that without a top-four finish, both Giuntoli and his decisions will come under scrutiny. Juventus doesn’t rely on capital gains, but there are players who, within a few years, could yield substantial profit when sold.”
Main Sponsor: “This matters tremendously for our image; the new shareholder represents promise, but so far, the focus remains on self-promotion. Should they commit to being a sponsor, that would be something to appreciate. Brand equity has taken a hit, and we must prioritize Champions League qualification.”
On Motta’s Dismissal: “Letting Motta go means accounting for the costs of his contract until June 2027. A mutual agreement would be beneficial. Missing out on qualification could reignite discussions about raising capital, particularly if the club needs to sell players like Mbangula valued at €0 on paper.”
Delisting: “There’s been stagnation for years; should the ownership decide to offload their stake, that’s a possibility to consider. Juventus must be more transparent and shouldn’t shy away from the stock market due to controversy. A 65% ownership represents significant economic weight. The prospect of delisting has circulated for some time; if it were intended for the near future, it would have materialised by now."
