The winger has been involved in lengthy discussions over his place at the Old Lady this season, as the club have sought to wrestle back their place near the summit of Italian football after a major drop-off last term.

Max Allegri's side have not been able to deliver a deal that will satisfy both parties however, meaning that the former Crotone loanee will elect to head on out after they came to a mutual agreement.

It marks the latest high-profile exit from the club, after Chiellini and Dybala enjoyed an emotional farewell in the club's final home game of the season earlier this month.

What will Juventus look like next season?

The Bianconeri are already making movements in the transfer market to bolster their ranks, as they prepare for an overhaul of several key personal.

Angel Di Maria looks set to join them from Paris Saint-Germain, while there could be a return to Turin for Paul Pogba.

The France international enjoyed a highly successful stay with the club before heading back to Manchester United over half-a-decade ago, but could well be poised to arrive once more as a free agent himself.
