Nicolò Fagioli was the latest player of the Juventus academy to leave the club, and Gazzetta reports that the Bianconeri have earned over €100m from the sales of NextGen players in the last two transfer windows.

The Italy international joined Fiorentina on the deadline day. The Tuscans paid €2.5m for the player’s loan until the end of the season and have an obligation to buy for €13.5m plus €3m add-ons.

Fagioli was only the latest product of the Juventus academy to leave the club over the last seven months.

As reported by Gazzetta, the Old Lady earned €103m from the sales of NextGen players during the last two transfer windows: summer 2024 and January 2025.

The highest income came from Matias Soulé’s move to Roma for €25.6m last summer, but the list also includes Dean Huijsen, who joined Bournemouth for €15.2m plus add-ons and a sell-on clause, Enzo Barrenechea and Samuel Iling Junior, who signed for Aston Villa in the summer for a combined €22m fee.

Kaio Jorge, Koni De Winter and Hans Nicolussi Caviglia are other former Juventus NextGen players who left Turin at the start of the current campaign.

Juventus was the first Serie A club to establish a second squad – the Juventus NextGen – to play in Italy’s third division, Serie C. This allowed young footballers to play in a professional league rather than Primavera and be more prepared for first-team football.
