Sidley advised Juventus Football Club S.p.A. on the successful private placement issuance of its €150,000,000 senior secured fixed-rate notes due 2037.
The notes carry a private investment-grade rating from a leading international rating agency, reflecting Juventus’ strong credit profile. The issuance optimizes the club’s debt structure by extending its average maturity, increasing its fixed-rate portion, and reducing overall financing costs over time.
This transaction highlights Sidley’s unique strengths in advising issuers on complex cross-border private placements, fusing our legal experience with a deep understanding of the international sports market.
The cross-border, cross-practice Sidley team was led by partner Ramy Wahbeh (M&A/Private Equity), counsel Todd Gilbert (Capital Markets), and managing associate Filippo Durazzo (M&A/Private Equity). The broader Sidley team includes David Howe, Michael Heinz, Omar Shafi, and Harekrishna Ashar (Capital Markets); Carla Teodoro (Investment Funds); and Steve Quinn (Tax).
