SSC Napoli faced a disappointing exit from the UEFA Champions League following their defeat to FC Barcelona in the Round of 16 match on March 12th, 2024. The loss not only marked the end of their European campaign but also highlighted the struggles the club has faced throughout the season.
Napoli's elimination at the hands of Barcelona had significant implications for Juventus, as it secured Juve's spot alongside Inter as Italy's representatives in the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. This achievement came with a substantial financial reward of $54 million for Juventus, thanks to Napoli's defeat.
