Juventus Defender Giorgio Chiellini Confirms Extension Talks
Giorgio Chiellini is eager to put pen to paper and sign a new deal with Juventus.
By Salvatore Landolina
Reports have suggested he will sign a new five-year extension on his current deal which expires in 2013.
And Chiellini has said next on the agenda is a meeting with Juve chiefs to finalise an accord.
"I agreed with Juventus that after the international fixtures we would see the directors to decide on my contract renewal," Chiellini told Tuttomercatoweb.com.
Italy beat the Faroe Islands 5-0 on Tuesday night, and Chiellini agrees a new-found wave of success has been established on the international scene.
"It was an important game for us and it was nice the way the fans welcomed the team in Florence," he concluded.
