“One year at Juve is worth seven” – Locatelli living the dream, explains Spalletti rapport Juventus captain Manuel Locatelli expressed his delight after renewing his contract with the club until June 2030. The midfielder has made a noticeable leap in quality this season, consolidating his role as the team’s leader on and off the pitch. The 28-year-old has been r ewarded with a new and improved contract .
Ahead of Sunday’s clash against Bologna, Locatelli held a pre-match press conference instead of his coach, Luciano Spalletti, and he took the opportunity to express what playing for Juventus means to him. “When I knew today I had to do this press conference, I asked myself how I could explain what I feel — renewing with Juventus, being the captain — it’s hard to put into words,” said the Italian international via TuttoJuve . “The answer is something I’d give tomorrow to any kid who comes to watch Juventus: ‘Have you supported Juve since you were little?
Would you like to become captain one day and commit to a project like this? ’ That’s my answer. “Sometimes it’s difficult to find the right words because we live off emotions, even if at times we have to be like robots.
But these are very happy moments — it’s another dream come true, and a huge responsibility. I feel the trust of the fans and the club, and that they look to me on the pitch. For me, this is a massive dream, and I’m very happy to have renewed with Juve.
