Nico González, a 28-year-old Argentine winger, has reached a verbal agreement with Juventus to extend his contract, currently valid until June 2029, according to Matteo Moretto. The new deal will also include a salary improvement, effectively closing the door on Atlético de Madrid's transfer market, which attempted to re-sign the player after his loan last season.

Nico González changes his future at Juventus

Nico González's situation has changed in just a few weeks. During the summer, the Argentine sought to return to Atlético de Madrid, where he played 24 LaLiga matches and scored five goals during the 2025/26 season. The deal did not materialize before the transfer window closed, and the player remained in Turin.

Continued performance altered the scenario. Luciano Spalletti started using Gonzalez, who responded with a goal against Parma on August 29, marking his return to Juventus after 461 days without playing for the club. He then started against Milan and played 64 minutes.

The improvement in performance also explains Juventus' shift. By the end of September, the Italian press already mentioned that the club had moved from considering a possible exit to assessing a contract extension. Gazzetta highlighted his improved stats in chances created, successful dribbles, and shots on target compared to his first spell in Turin.

Atlético de Madrid definitively loses Nico González

Atlético de Madrid had tried to negotiate his stay after the loan. The 2025 deal included a €32 million purchase option, but the club didn't exercise it and later sought alternative ways to reduce the transaction cost.

The summer concluded without an agreement, and Nico González returned to Juventus, who chose to keep him. This decision was significant as Spalletti found value in a player capable of playing as a winger, forward, or attacking midfielder, especially during a start of the season affected by multiple absences.

The Argentine's contract runs until June 30, 2029, and his estimated market value is €22 million, according to Transfermarkt's latest update. His current salary is around €3.6 million net per season, a figure that will be reviewed in the new deal.

Nico González's renewal signifies Juventus' next move to secure his continuity. The verbal agreement will now need to be formalized while Atlético de Madrid will have to explore other options to strengthen their attack in upcoming markets.

For Nico González, the next step will be finalizing the renewal and extending a commitment already in place until 2029. The Argentine had prioritized returning to Atlético during the summer, but his changed sporting circumstances in Turin have now inclined the balance towards Juventus.
