The Juventus closed the 2020/21 budget with a strong loss, equal to approx 210 million euros, more than double that of 89.7 million of the previous year.

Operating costs also rose to 35.2 million euros, while the net financial debt amounted to € 389.2 million.
The data was approved by Board of Directors, who at the end of the session issued an official statement: “At present the year 2021/2022 – still significantly penalized by the direct and indirect effects of the pandemic – is foreseen in significant loss“.
