According to Tuttosport, Andrea Barzagli’s contract renewal is merely a formality. The Italian sports-daily reports that the centre-back has already signed a contract until 2018 when he will bring his career to an end. The official announcement will be made via a press conference in the near future. Despite his advancing years, the 34 year-old continues to be one of the pillars of the Juve rear-guard, playing his part this season in the Bianconeri’s fifth straight title triumph.
