Alessandro Del Piero has extended his contract with the Turin club for another year and will represent them in the 19th season of his career.

The 36-year-old veteran was set to become a free agent in June, but the team leaders did not want to part ways with the legendary player.

"This day is special," the Italian wrote on one of the social networks.

In 30 matches, 16 of which he started in the first team, the forward scored seven goals in the Italian championships this season.
