Juventus Miss Out on Two Big Cash Influxes for Now

Douglas Luiz and Nico Gonzalez seemed on track to be bought out by Aston Villa and Atletico Madrid at some point, but that won’t be the case, and Juventus will have to find a solution again in the summer, Tuttomercatoweb reports.

The Bianconeri had hoped to cash in nearly €60M from the duo, but it won’t happen, at least automatically. The Brazilian midfielder headed back to Birmingham after failing to leave his mark at Nottingham Forest. However, he’s not a regular starter. His €25M option to buy won’t be picked up.

Gonzalez has had a better season than Douglas Luiz, but the conditions to trigger a €32M permanent exit from Juventus haven’t been met. He missed a few matches due to injury in the second half of the season and is currently on the mend. He has tallied 5 goals in 37 matches with Los Colchoneros.

The two could still stay where they are, but only after the terms are renegotiated. Per , Atletico Madrid are willing to pay around €20M for the Argentine. Instead, it’ll be tougher to offload the midfielder. He has a residual €30M financial value and makes €5M per year.

Q&A

Why won't Juventus receive €60M from Douglas Luiz and Nico Gonzalez?

Juventus will not receive the funds because the buyout options for both players were not triggered, with Luiz returning to Aston Villa and Gonzalez not meeting the conditions for a permanent transfer.

What are the current situations of Douglas Luiz and Nico Gonzalez?

Douglas Luiz has returned to Aston Villa after a loan spell at Nottingham Forest, while Nico Gonzalez is recovering from injury and has not met the conditions for a permanent transfer from Atletico Madrid.

What impact does this have on Juventus' financial situation?

The failure to secure these buyouts means Juventus will need to explore other financial solutions to bolster their budget in the upcoming summer transfer window.
