During the Commisso era, four players have moved from Fiorentina to Juventus, almost consistently failing to meet expectations. While these transfers proved beneficial for Fiorentina`s finances, they represented costly and unproductive ventures for Juventus.

The history of transfers between Fiorentina and Juventus is a long one, beginning with Sergio Cervato in the late 1950s and continuing in 1990 with Roberto Baggio, whose move famously ignited the wrath of Fiorentina fans. However, these transfers have seen a significant acceleration in the last decade, particularly since Rocco Commisso acquired the Viola club.
Between 2017 and 2024, Juventus has aggressively pursued and secured four players from Fiorentina for substantial sums. Surprisingly, for various reasons, every one of these high-profile acquisitions has failed to live up to expectations, leaving fans and the club disappointed.
