In 2015, the Italian side did good business to sign Neto for free, despite the player being brought in as back-up for Gianluigi Buffon. The goalkeeper signed for Valencia at the beginning of this campaign, a deal the Bianconeri made a profit from.
At the beginning of last season, Juve signed former FC Barcelona fullback Dani Alves for free, while at left back in the free agents team is Patrice Evra, who joined the Old Lady from Manchester United in 2014.
The centre-back pairing is made up of retired Brazilian defender Lucio and Italian hard man Andrea Barzagli, who has been at the Bianconeri since 2011, although Juve did pay a small fee for him, according to Calciomercato.
The midfield consists of big stars Andrea Pirlo, Kingsley Coman, Sami Khedira and current Manchester United superstar Paul Pogba, who the club famously made a massive profit on.
The Frenchman joined Juve for free in 2012 after being reluctantly released by the Red Devils, and re-signed for the English club in 2016 for a fee of £94.5 million (R1.6 billion).
