Juventus have officially announced a contract extension with midfielder Manuel Locatelli, keeping him at the club until 2028. A statement on the clubs official website read:
Manuel Locatelli puts his signature on a future which will continue in black and white, having officially renewed his contract with Juventus until 2028.
It was destiny. A lifelong Juventus fan, Loca fulfilled his dream of wearing our shirt in 2021, transforming the goal into a new starting point, with the mentality of someone who is not satisfied. From that moment there hasn’t been a single training session or a single match in which he didn’t give everything for his Juventus. In the best moments and in the most difficult ones.
Some unforgettable flashes that capture the journey we have made so far together: the debut in Udine, the first goal against Sampdoria, the decisive goal in the Derby della Mole, the last goal, the three-point one at San Siro against Milan. A goal against his past to relaunch himself towards a future still in black and white.
This signature until 2028 is a dream come true that is still continuing. It is another promise to himself and to his Juventus.
Congratulations, Loca!
