Report: Del Piero agrees contract
Alessandro Del Piero is reportedly ready to put pen to paper on a new contract with Juventus.

The captain’s current deal expires on June 30 and negotiations have been dragged on to this late stage.

According to the latest reports from Turin, Del Piero has reached a basic agreement for a one-year extension.

It will provide €1m per season – a massive drop from the €4m he earns at the moment.

There will also be clauses and performance-related bonus elements to the deal.

Del Piero has been with the Bianconeri since joining their youth academy in 1993 and will turn 37 in November.

If life is fair at times this man shouldn't retire from the game or I'll end up in coma.

I don't know if I should be happy or sad with this news. Last year with Del Piero in my team. :depressed

I really really really wish I can make his farewell game to pay him my respect and tribute. :depressed

He fucking accepted 1 mln contract when he is currently on 4 mln. That's a hell of a gesture.

 

[Bezzy]

this male just keep giving me this feeling :

Yup, especially when he could have gone to some team in the middle east, Japan, MLS, etc and made a shitload.

Who says this will be his last season. If we rely on Matri and Quag to start then I'm pretty sure Ale will end up benching one of them. Until we sign a quality SS Del Piero will be around. I expect two seasons more.

Yup, especially when he could have gone to some team in the middle east, Japan, MLS, etc and made a shitload.

I remember in his last famous statement concerning his contract and the blank sheet thing, he said something, that if he was looking for figures and earning more he could have easily left Italy and head somewhere else. Even now.

I know the middle-east/gulf countries are willing to pay him millions just to have him eat corn and seeds on their bench.

Imagine how many people will want to attend that game, it will be more popular than the world cup final. DP is a living legend.

 

[Azzurri7]

Even if it will cost me a fortune I will try to make it. For me it's worth much more than WC finals.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Rab, do you love Del Piero?

 

[Azzurri7]

 

[Juve Fanatico]

Shameful stuff from our board, especially Agnelli. That's all I can say.

Forza Capitano.

 

[Azzurri7]

Our board acted as if they're feeling pity for Ale and are awarding him something just to keep him quiet.

Well, I guess spending and paying wages on Martinez, Motta, Amauari, Iaquinta and many others is wise-money spend while on someone like Del Piero it's just to keep the fans quiet.
