€7.25 million is what we lost in this deal. Sold his half for €3.75m and bought it back for €11m.
It was always clear that we were gonna lose money. We sent a bencher to Parma and they return him to us as a top 5 serie A performer (goals+assists). Parma developed a player for us and we had to pay them for that. It's still a lot of money paid to Parma for developing one of our own players.

Let me put a thought in your heads..
Giving Giovinco the number 10 would perhaps motivate and boost him in terms of confidence so that he'll actually transfer his winning formula from his Parma time to Juventus. With Giovinco #10 it's a signal that our own youth products can achieve same jerseys (not status anytime yet) as the big legends we once had (bought from elsewhere) to win us glory.. It's a symbol of the future.
The fact that our own talents can actually go all the way up and feature as starters for the first team is a milestone in youth systems.. I might be wrong in my juve-history but when is that last time we had two completely home grown players in our starting lineup, and that in a winning team consisting of top quality players all around with loads of competition..?
Giovinco is italian. I like to continue supplying the azzurri with juventus players and even better - home grown players. If he scored 15 goals and provided something like 12 assists next season and did not become the top scorer (as we've landed some big name CF in the meantime who would become a topscorer of Juve or perhaps Serie A) I honestly think he has become a top class footballer. How many SS' do you see with that sort of statistics anyway??

Without trying to badly underrate Seba's, Marchisio's or PDC's quality, I think the main reason for this is serie A's strength and our own strength on the european transfer market. Since we can't buy the Zidanes and Nedveds, we open way for our best youngsters to make it into the starting XI and be regulars there. I'm not sure that all or most of these youngsters would have had the same chance if Juve had the same financial power from the late 90's and early 2000's.
True.. But just because we don't have the same financial power it doesn't mean our future team will become worse.. Our talents can be just as good as anybody elses - maybe our talent academy has improved? If you go back you'd see Moggi spending huge sums on players. More then we are spending now! If we could sign the talents instead of stars we'd save so much money and if these players are good enough due to our improved academy I think our future is very bright.
