Nedved sets quit date
Friday 8 October, 2004
Pavel Nedved will probably hang up his boots when his present Juventus deal comes to an end.
There was talk that the Czech ace would sign a new contract in Turin but that now seems unlikely.
"My current agreement expires in 2006 and I don’t think that I will renew it," stated the midfield marvel. "I’ll be 34 by then and I think that I will retire from the game."
The former Lazio player is an influential figure at the Stadio Delle Alpi and he was rewarded for his efforts with the 2003 Golden Ball.
So who does he believe should succeed him this year as the European Footballer of the Year?
"There are a host of players who have done enough to deserve the award," explained the Bianconeri ace.
"But my favourite is undoubtedly Milan’s Andriy Shevchenko. If it was up to me then he would get it because I really like him as a player."
