Key Points
  • Juventus reportedly won't exercise purchase option on Emil Holm
  • Holm has played only two matches for Juventus due to injury
  • Conflicting reports exist about Juventus's intentions

The Swedish national team player moved to Juventus just before the January transfer window closed. Juventus loaned Holm with a purchase option of 15 million euros plus 3 million euros in bonuses. Holm has only played two matches for Juventus due to an injury. Transfer journalist Nicolò Schira reported that Juventus will not exercise its purchase option on Holm. It has previously been reported that Juventus hesitates to buy Holm due to the price tag, according to major media sources.

Emil Holm, 25, left Spezia for Bologna in the summer of 2024, according to major media reports. The right-back scored one goal and five assists in 19 competitive matches for Bologna this season, according to major media reports. Holm has a contract with Bologna that runs until the summer of 2028.

Jonathan Chalkias, who represents Holm, has not received any such information from Juventus. Juventus released its right-back João Mário, 26, on loan to Bologna, according to major media reports. Whether Juventus will ultimately exercise the purchase option on Emil Holm remains unclear, as does how Holm's injury and performance in the coming months will influence Juventus's decision. The timeline for when Juventus will make a final decision on the purchase option is also unknown.
