Davide Marchisio Signs First Juventus Professional Deal Until 2028

Juventus have tied midfielder Davide Marchisio to his first professional contract, with the academy prospect committing to the club until 2028.

Born on August 31, 2009, Marchisio has progressed through the Bianconeri youth system and is now an Under-18 regular. The agreement marks a significant step in his development at the club he has supported since childhood, while placing him on a pathway that could eventually lead towards Juventus Next Gen.

A first professional step in Turin

Marchisio described the signing as an emotional moment after finalising the deal. In a message shared following the announcement, he said he was proud to sign for the team he had dreamed of playing for since he was young.

He added that he intends to keep working with ambition, improve his game and give everything for Juventus, ending his message with the club’s “Fino alla fine” motto.

The midfielder is the son of former Juventus player Claudio Marchisio, but his rise through the academy has been built on his own performances and commitment. Claudio has helped guide his son’s development while seeking to protect him from the weight of obvious comparisons.

Development record points to Under-18 importance

Before becoming established with Juventus Under-18s, Marchisio made 23 appearances for the Under-17 side and scored three goals. One of those strikes came in the Derby della Mole, giving his youth-team record an early landmark moment.

He has also made an immediate mark with the newly created Under-18 team, scoring its first goal earlier this season. Juventus will expect him to be a central figure during a demanding domestic campaign as he continues to develop in midfield.

1. Marchisio built his early Juventus record with 23 Under-17 appearances and three goals.
2. He scored in the Derby della Mole at Under-17 level.
3. He moved into the Under-18 group and registered the side’s first-ever goal this term.
4. Late last season, Luciano Spalletti included him in first-team training at Continassa.
5. Juventus have now secured his future through to 2028 with a first professional contract.

Next Gen route remains the key target

First-team training under Spalletti last season offered Marchisio an initial taste of the senior environment, but the immediate focus will remain on his Under-18 responsibilities. Consistent displays over the autumn, alongside continued physical and technical growth, will shape how quickly he can move closer to the Next Gen set-up.

Juventus staff are expected to track those areas closely as they manage his transition from academy football towards the professional game. The contract gives the club time to oversee that process while rewarding a player who has already advanced rapidly through the youth ranks.
