The 2016–17 season is Juventus Football Club's 119th in existence and tenth consecutive season in the top flight of Italian football. Juventus re-designed their kit with a different take on the trademark white and black stripes in this season.[1] On 26 July 2016, Juventus signing Gonzalo Higuaín became, at the time, the third highest football transfer of all-time and highest ever transfer for an Italian club,[2] when he signed for €90 million from Napoli.[3] On 8 August 2016, Paul Pogba returned to his first club, Manchester United, for an all-time record for highest football transfer fee at €105 million, surpassing the former record holder Gareth Bale.[4]
