The judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) of March 20, 2025, in case C-365/23 (Arce) marks a significant step forward in protecting minors in contractual agreements. The case involves a contract between a minor represented by their parents and a sports development company, in which the minor’s future income is pledged. The CJEU\u27s ruling extends the scope of Directive 93/13 on unfair terms to contracts signed by minors, even when they are not yet professional, and emphasizes the importance of judicial review of clauses that may cause an imbalance between the parties, especially when the terms are not adequately explained. This judgment reinforces consumer protection, particularly for vulnerable groups such as minors, by ensuring that they are not subjected to abusive clauses that can affect their long-term interests.La sentencia del TJUE de 20 de marzo de 2025 en el asunto C 365/23 (Arce) constituye un avance significativo en la protección de los menores en el ámbito contractual.
