Juventus financially strong but worried about Serie A

Juventus may not be thrilled after the draw against Atalanta, but at least the Bianconeri continues to build upon their positive finances of the past, as they continue to build upon their football related revenues. The club has already reached its initial goal of becoming sustainable.

According to KPMG Football Benchmark study, and as reported by Gazzetta dello Sport, a few cubs can boast of being in the same situation as Juventus, as the club has seen substantial growth since the 2011-2012 season with 75% increase as well as 48% increase in salaries.

However KMPG is concerned with the rest of Serie A, as a trend has been steadily occurring over the last five years; sales had increase by 17% as opposed to salaries which had only increased by 16%, which is in stark contrast to other top leagues in Europe. The Premier League is at 76%, whereas the Bundesliga is at 45%, La Liga at 36% and finally Ligue 1 at 29%. 

Serie A’s low growth rate is the major concern for not only Juventus but the whole of Serie A.
