  • Juventus defenders Giorgio Chiellini and Andrea Barzagli have both agreed contract extensions with the Serie A champions.

    Chiellini, 33, has signed a deal until 2020 while Barzagli, 37, will remain at Allianz Stadium until next summer at least.

    A statement on the club’s website read: “Juventus could not be happier to maintain the services of the two men.”

    Chiellini joined the club in 2005 and has recently been made Juve captain, taking over from Gianluigi Buffon who left this summer.

    The Italy centre-back has racked up 472 appearances and, alongside Barzagli, has won the last seven Serie A titles.

    Barzagli, a fellow central defender, was a 2011 arrival from Wolfsburg and has played 271 matches for the Bianconeri.
