Fourth place, Champions race and a future to be written. Juventus is experiencing a two-sided season, between highs and lows, but with a goal that is still alive and attainable. Re-entering the top four is crucial, not only for sporting pride but also for economic reasons. In this context, the new course signed by Igor Tudor is beginning to show some positive signs. Grit, new ideas, and a team that is finally beginning to respond on the field.
But outside the green rectangle, it is also time for important choices for the club’s economic and commercial future. And it is precisely here that John Elkann enters the scene, determined to give a strong, concrete, and above all immediate signal.
Jeep di nuovo protagonista: un affare “di casa”
After a season spent with the Save The Children charity logo on its jersey, Juventus is ready to turn over a new leaf. The news everyone has been waiting for is finally about to become reality: the return of Jeep as main sponsor. An operation wanted and decided precisely by the ownership, ready to put a sum of around 20 million euros on the plate already in the short term.

Negotiations initially opened with other interlocutors, such as ITA Airways, then foundered for political reasons. In the end, the choice again fell on the Stellantis Group brand, thanks to a direct intervention by Elkann himself, who preferred to draw the offer of a potential new partner to “keep everything in the family.”
The deal is expected to extend until June 30, 2026, with the possibility of including a performance clause linked to sports results. It will not be the pharaonic contract of the past, but it remains a strong signal in a complicated season.
Non solo marketing: c’è anche una strategia globale
Behind the move to bring Jeep back on uniforms is more than a marketing operation. The brand’s new commercial positioning, especially in the run-up to the Club World Cup in the United States, makes this move perfectly in line with the Stellantis group’s visibility strategies.

The idea is to combine Jeep’s return with Visit Detroit’s logo, a pairing designed to boost the brand even in the North American market, where the group is trying to circumvent difficulties imposed by customs duties.
It is no coincidence that the timing of the announcement is studied to the millimeter: Juventus will have to have the sponsor on its jerseys by the last game of the season (May 25 against Venezia) in order to display the logo at the Club World Cup as well. Alternatively, it will be necessary for the agreement to be valid for the entire following season.
According to leaks from circles close to the Bianconeri leadership, the agreement with Jeep and Visit Detroit would guarantee a figure around 20 million annually, with a variable portion tied to sports results and the achievement of commercial goals.
It may not be a contract at the levels of the past — there was talk of 45 million a year — but in a season when the jersey sponsor had generated zero euros, it is nonetheless an important breath of fresh air that could be the foundation stone for rebuilding the Juventus project.
Now only one question remains: will this new injection of confidence, both economic and symbolic, be enough to bring Juve back among Europe’s greats?
