Tether Proposes to Acquire Exor's Majority Stake in Juventus FC
On December 12, 2025, Tether made an all-cash bid to acquire Exor's 65.4% stake in Juventus FC, according to Decrypt. Exor currently owns the majority of the Italian soccer club, and if they accept Tether's offer, the company plans to launch a public tender offer for the remaining shares at the same price. Earlier this year, Tether had already acquired a minority stake in Juventus.
If the acquisition is successful, Tether intends to invest €1 billion to support the club's development. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino expressed a personal connection to Juventus and a commitment to its long-term growth.
Tether has been active in various investments, including an $81 million funding round in an Italian humanoid robotics firm, and in November, it purchased 1 million shares of Rumble, complementing a prior $775 million investment in the company. Bloomberg reported that Tether is also considering tokenizing its stock and aims to raise $20 billion at a $500 billion valuation.
A Tether representative did not immediately respond to Decrypt's request for comment.
