In a stunning turn of events, Juventus fans were left reeling after the club’s English X account posted an announcement welcoming Real Madrid’s rising star Arda Güler to the Juventus family. The post, featuring a photo of the 19-year-old Turkish international at an airport, sent shockwaves through the football world, as the transfer window had already closed. However, the excitement was short-lived, as Juventus soon clarified that the account had been hacked, much to the disappointment of their supporters.
The Hacked Announcement That Rocked Juventus Fans
The false announcement, which proclaimed “Welcome to Juventus, Arda Güler” and hailed him as “the rising star of football,” caught fans off guard. With the transfer window closed, many were left scratching their heads, wondering how such a high-profile move could have taken place under the radar. The post quickly spread across social media, with Juventus supporters expressing their elation at the prospect of the highly rated midfielder joining their ranks.
Juventus Sets the Record Straight
However, the celebration was cut short when Juventus took to their Italian X account to clarify the situation. The club stated, “Our Juventus English account has been hacked. Please ignore the false information being published on this account.” The news came as a crushing blow to fans who had already begun dreaming of Güler’s potential impact on the team.
The hacking of our English X account and the spreading of false transfer news is a serious matter that we are investigating thoroughly.

The Mystery Behind the Hack
The incident raises questions about the security of Juventus’ social media accounts and the motives behind the hack. Was it a prank by mischievous hackers, or could there be more sinister intentions at play? The club has not yet released any information regarding the perpetrators or the extent of the breach, leaving fans to speculate about the true nature of the attack.
The Rising Star Arda Güler
Despite the false announcement, there’s no denying that Arda Güler is a name to watch in the world of football. The young Turkish midfielder has been making waves at Real Madrid, showcasing his immense potential and technical prowess. It’s no surprise that clubs like Juventus would be interested in securing his services, even if this particular transfer story turned out to be a hoax.
Juventus Focuses on Champions League Success
As the dust settles on this social media fiasco, Juventus will be looking to put the incident behind them and focus on their upcoming Champions League clash against VfB Stuttgart. The Italian giants have started their European campaign with a perfect record, notching wins against PSV Eindhoven and RB Leipzig. Manager Alvaro Motta will be hoping his team can maintain their prolific form in Europe, despite their relatively subdued goalscoring in Serie A.
We must always have the same attitude, each match is a story in itself — with evolving strategies and situations.

As Juventus aims to put this hacking incident in the rearview mirror, fans will undoubtedly be left wondering what might have been had the Arda Güler announcement been legitimate. For now, they’ll have to content themselves with cheering on their team as they navigate the challenges of Serie A and the Champions League, all while remaining vigilant against any future social media breaches that could once again leave them with dashed hopes and broken dreams.
