Overview
- Juventus announced Monday that it has exercised the pre-agreed purchase option to sign Jérémie Boga from OGC Nice and has given the player a contract through 30 June 2029.
- The club reported a fee of €4.8 million payable over two financial years with up to €0.8 million in ancillary costs, while some outlets rounded the figure to €5.0 million.
- Boga joined Juventus on a winter loan from Nice and produced four goals during his spell, which allowed the club to evaluate him before committing to a permanent deal.
- The transfer is the first completed under new CEO Giovanni Carnevali and draws on his prior knowledge of Boga from their time together at Sassuolo.
- The move exemplifies the loan-to-buy approach that reduces acquisition risk for buyers and gave Nice an incentive to accept a low fee because the player had only one year left on his contract.
