Juventus commits 106 million euros annually, including bonuses, to pay the salaries of its squad. That financial commitment breaks down to over 1.6 million euros every week before factoring in performance bonuses. While those figures represent ordinary expenditures within elite European football, individual player packages vary widely across the club’s roster under coach Luciano Spalletti.
The Low-End Wage Structure at Juventus
At the bottom end of the salary scale, third-party loan players whose wages are covered elsewhere—such as Miretti, Joao Mario, Openda, Di Gregorio, and Adzic—are excluded from the club’s active payroll calculations. Among players currently on the books, veteran backup goalkeeper Carlo Pinsoglio holds the lowest definitive salary on the team. Pinsoglio earns 0.375 million euros (0.3 million+0.075 of bonus) annually, combining a 0.3 million base with 0.075 million in bonuses, under a contract running through June 30, 2027. Tuttosport notes that the Italian goalkeeper serves as a vital squad locker-room anchor and unifying presence. Incoming Brazilian goalkeeper Neto prepares to join Spalletti’s squad as cover for the injured Kamil Grabara. While official financial terms for Neto remain undisclosed, Tuttosport reports his incoming package will total less than 1 million euros per year, positioning him among the most cost-effective squad members.
Recent Additions and Injury-Impacted Contracts
Young forward Jeff Ekhator commands 1.495 million euros (1.3 million+0.195 of bonus) annually, comprising a 1.3 million base alongside 0.195 million in bonuses. The 2006-born attacker arrived from Genoa during the prior summer transfer window but has yet to make an official appearance for the club due to recurring physical setbacks. Colombian defender Juan Cabal matches that financial tier with a 1.5 million (1.2 million+0.3 of bonus) euro package, which includes 1.2 million in base pay and 0.3 million in bonuses. Cabal remains sidelined with an injury that prevents him from contributing on the pitch, though the club anticipates his eventual return as a tactical option for both left-back and the left side of a three-man central defense.
Goalkeeper Roster Complications and Pay Scales
Polish international Kamil Grabara occupies a higher salary tier at 2.125 million euros (1.7 million+0.425 of bonus) annually, split into a 1.7 million base and 0.425 million in bonuses. Grabara’s season hit an abrupt halt after he sustained a severe cruciate ligament rupture during his lone appearance for the club, an outing in which he also contributed an assist. That long-term medical absence forced Juventus into the market to secure Neto’s arrival.
