I do not know".
"At some point there may be a possible renewal, but that depends on Juventus," he explained, "at the moment there is nothing, really. A year and a half remains in my contract, which is not a long period, and I understand that everything that happened (virus crisis Corona Novelty) is not easy for the club, but contracts for other players have been renewed ... so we are waiting. "
