Davide Marchisio signs first professional contract with Juventus

The legacy of the Marchisio family continues at Juventus, as the Italian club announced today, Monday, the signing of 17-year-old midfielder Davide Marchisio to his first professional contract. He is regarded as one of the most promising talents in the club's academy.

Davide was born in 2009 and has signed a contract with Juventus until the end of 2028, after catching the eye with his performances in youth teams. He plays in midfield with his right foot, like his father Claudio, and was a key player in the team that won the Serie A title under 16.

The signing of the contract confirms Juventus' trust in the development of the young player, who carries a family name long associated with the club's history, with hopes that he will follow in his father's footsteps and reach the first team in the future.

Claudio Marchisio, aged 40, is considered one of the most prominent symbols of Juventus in the modern era. He joined the club's academy in 1993, before going on to play 389 matches for the first team during a career that spanned 25 years, ending in 2018, before announcing his retirement from football the following year.
