Tether Crosses 10% Stake in Juventus Football Club, Solidifies Position as a Significant Shareholder

April 24, 2025  — Tether Investments, S.A. de C.V., a member of the Tether Group (which includes Tether International, S.A. de C.V., the issuer of USD₮, the world’s largest stablecoin with over 400 million users globally), today announced that on April 15, 2025 it acquired additional shares in Juventus Football Club S.p.A., bringing its total participation to over 10.12 % of the issued share capital, representing 6.18% of voting rights.

This strategic move follows Tether’s initial acquisition of 8.2% of the issued share capital (representing just over 5% of voting rights) of the Club, allowing Tether to further increase its investment in the iconic Turin-based football powerhouse.

Founded in 1897, Juventus is one of the most successful and storied football clubs in the world, with an unrivaled history in Italian football, a vast global fanbase, and a brand synonymous with excellence, tradition, and innovation. From historic Serie A triumphs to Champions League campaigns, Juventus represents a global legacy that extends well beyond the pitch.

The investment reflects Tether’s long-term commitment to Juventus’s future and its confidence in the Club’s intrinsic value and growth potential. It also signals the beginning of what is expected to be a deep and mutually beneficial partnership aimed at creating synergies between the worlds of sport and technology. In fact, Tether’s leadership in the multi-trillion-dollar digital assets space—combined with its multi-billion-dollar investments in artificial intelligence, biotechnology, social media, and global distribution networks—has the potential to bring unmatched value to the football club, opening new avenues for monetization and expanding its global reach across continents and billions of people.

“We are proud to become a significant shareholder of Juventus, a club with a history, brand, and fanbase that is second to none,” said Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino. “This investment is not just financial—it’s a commitment to innovation and long-term collaboration. We believe Juventus is uniquely positioned to lead both on the field and in embracing technology that can elevate fan engagement, digital experiences, and financial resilience. We’re excited about the opportunities ahead.”

As a further demonstration of its long-term commitment, Tether is also open to participating in any future equity injections to help strengthen Juventus’s financial foundation and avoid dilution of its position. 

Tether looks forward to working closely with Juventus’s leadership and stakeholders to support the Club in executing its strategic vision and accelerating its growth across sporting and commercial dimensions, while also exploring the formation of an integrated and unified board of Directors.
