Muharemovic ready for Juventus return at half price €18m deal
Juventus are ready to finalise the return of Tarik Muharemovic from Sassuolo, which thanks to his past in their youth academy will cost only €18m rather than €36m.
The 23-year-old came up through the Bianconeri system from 2021 and played for the Next Gen side in Serie C.
He was loaned to Sassuolo in 2024, purchased a year later at a cost of €2m, but with 50 per cent of the future sale fee going to the Turin giants. ............
Just one year on from that agreement, Muharemovic’s value on the transfer market has soared to around €40m including add-ons, with interest from the likes of Inter, Fenerbahce, Como, Bournemouth and Aston Villa. ............
Now Juventus decided to bring him back to base.
It means they can get him for ‘just’ €18m including €2m in add-ons, half the real cost of the transfer that would otherwise be €36m for any other club.
His former Juventus Next Gen teammate Kenan Yildiz was a key figure in the negotiations, convincing the player to reunite in the senior squad. ............
Inevitably, the presence of new Juve director Giovanni Carnevali, who until a few weeks ago was in charge of the Sassuolo strategy and therefore negotiated the deal in the first place, also helped.
