"Juventus" club does not exclude experienced Italian national team defender Andrea Pirlo from its future plans.
After this season, the 34-year-old footballer's contract with the "Bianconeri" will expire, but the club is not willing to lose this defender.
In recent days, there have been reports in the press that A. Pirlo has caught the attention of the London club "Tottenham." Several other top European football teams are also monitoring the situation of the Italian.
Meanwhile, "Juventus" general director Giuseppe Marotta considers A. Pirlo one of the most important players in this team.
"In this team, Andrea Pirlo is most similar to Michel Platini both as a player and as a person," - G. Marotta answered a question asked by journalists.
"A new contract? We get along great with this player and the club is ready for negotiations," - assured the club's general director.
Before joining Turin's club in 2011, A. Pirlo represented the "Milan" team for almost ten years.
