The 21-year-old Portuguese player is set to join the Serie A club on a loan deal from Chelsea. This move will see Veiga spend the rest of the season with Juventus, where he is expected to strengthen their defense, primarily playing as a center-back.
The loan deal, valued at €5 million (£4.2 million), does not include an option for a permanent transfer. After completing the loan, Veiga will return to Chelsea in time for the Club World Cup.
Veiga, seeking more playing time ahead of the 2026 World Cup, chose Juventus over other clubs, including Borussia Dortmund and two Premier League teams. This opportunity to gain valuable experience in Serie A aligns with his development goals. Chelsea, despite missing his versatility in midfield due to injuries to key players like Enzo Fernández and Roméo Lavia, sees the loan as beneficial for both parties, allowing Veiga to develop while contributing to Chelsea’s future campaigns.
This strategic loan has been praised for its financial benefits and for giving Veiga the opportunity to further his career at a top European club.
