Alex Sandro’s current Juventus contract expires in 2020 but the Old Lady wants to extend the Brazilian’s stay until 2022.

The Serie A champions are also planning to raise Alex Sandro’s salary from € 2.8 million-a-year until € 4.5 million-a-year.

Alex Sandro refused to join Chelsea in the summer and Juventus are now hoping that the 26-year-old will commit his future to the club signing a contract extension in the coming days.

The Brazilian joined Juventus in summer 2015 for € 26 million.
