Everything is ready for the Juventus midfielder to sign a new contract extention: “We strongly desire it, both me and the club.”
Locatelli and Juventus, moving forward together, at least until 2028. The contract extension is nearing completion, as revealed by the midfielder himself a few days ago, saying, “We strongly desire it, both me and the club.”
He is becoming increasingly central to the Juventus project, and he has been a prominent figure for the national team since Roberto Mancini took over as head coach. The renewal further solidifies his position in Turin and revitalizes his personal ambitions.
The player stated, “Becoming important at Juve is something I aspire to, and if I become a leader in the group, I won’t have to prove it, my teammates will recognize it.” Locatelli strongly desired the move to Juventus while he was at Sassuolo, even though several prominent Premier League clubs were interested in him… and it’s paying off
UNDER ALLEGRI
Under Massimiliano Allegri, the player has been playing as a deep-lying midfielder, just in front of the defense. His understanding with Rabiot has improved significantly in recent months, and even without Fagioli, with whom he had better communication last year, he has managed to maintain the quality of his game.
At San Siro, he scored the winning goal against Milan, his former club, in a crucial match for securing a place in the next Champions League (Juve’s clear objective since the start of the season).
Locatelli aims to win a trophies with Juventus soon, a team he has supported since childhood. But above all, he aims to become a key player in the new era. Additionally, he is one of the few Italian players in the squad, contributing to the team’s Italian identity.”
