Juventus are on the verge of completing a significant transfer coup as they near the finish line in their pursuit of Nico Gonzalez from Fiorentina. The Bianconeri’s original plan to secure both Teun Koopmeiners and Gonzalez before their season opener against Como is coming to fruition, albeit with some patience and effort.
Calciomercato report that while the deal for Koopmeiners was primarily a matter of increasing the financial offer, the transfer of Gonzalez hinged on a domino effect involving multiple clubs. The pieces are now falling into place, with Andrea Pinamonti moving to Genoa and Albert Gudmundsson set to join Fiorentina.
The structure of Gonzalez’s move to Juventus is taking shape as a costly loan with an obligation to buy. The initial loan fee is expected to be just under €10 million, with the total deal surpassing €30 million once the purchase obligation is triggered. Gonzalez is set to earn €3.5 million per season in Turin.
With Gudmundsson’s arrival in Florence imminent, the timing is ripe for Fiorentina to finalize Gonzalez’s departure. Both clubs are working to close the deal before the end of the week, marking a significant reinforcement for Juventus as they prepare for the new season.
