Juventus plans to list on the Milan stock exchange in December, Fiat's Agnelli family holding company, Ifi, said today.
Ifi owns 99.6 per cent of the Serie A Turin-based club.
"In light of the strong market expectations Ifi confirms the plan to quote Juventus Football Club during December, depending on the authorisation of [market regulator] Consob and the bourse and the market trend," Ifi said in a brief statement.
The club, lying sixth in Serie A after a defeat by Lazio at the weekend, would join the Rome-based club - and city rivals Roma - on the Milan bourse.
A financial source told Reuterslast week Juventus was due to make a planned initial public offering and list on the bourse around December 20th.
Business daily Il Sole 24 Oretoday also spoke of a bourse debut on December 20th, the day after Juventus are due to play Fiorentina in a league match.
Ifi is expected to sell a 19 per cent stake and 16 per cent will come from newly issued shares.
The financial source said Juventus was valued at between £340 million and £500 million.
