World-terrible news: Juventus current head coach and two other richest players have been kidnapped by a group of criminals who were arrested and confirmed to be his former sacked players.
Horrible news for the world: a bunch of criminals who were proven to be the players that had been fired by Juventus have abducted the team’s current head coach as well as two of its wealthiest players.
It has occurred once more. About 17 years after Calciopoli, Juventus is embroiled in a scandal that has led to their ban from playing in Europe the following season. But the latest controversy isn’t about trying to influence referees. ‘Plusvalenza’ is the topic here, along with a lot more.
The Italian Football Federation (FIGC) first docked the club 15 points in January for “financial irregularities” and “false accounting” pertaining to previous transfer transactions. The Bianconeri finally had 10 points taken away, which caused Massimiliano Allegri’s team to fall out of the top four and lose their spot in the 2023–24 Champions League. Those points were reinstated on appeal in April, pending a new trial.
So, how did things get to this point, and is the story now complete? Below, Goal explains everything.
Describe plusvalenza.
Understanding plusvalenza, or capital gains—basically, the profit on a transfer—is essential to comprehending this entire situation.
Let’s say Juventus signs a player for €100 million over the course of five years. Over the course of the player’s contract, they would amortize the cost of his registration rights, probably distributing the payments equally over a five-year period. The player’s amortised worth, calculated by dividing €100 million by five, would be €20 million annually.
Juve would therefore realize a capital gain of €20 million on his registration rights if they were to sell that player for €60 million after three years (€60 million less the remaining €40 million in amortised value).
