Alessandro Del Piero: 'No retirement plans'

Alessandro Del Piero confirms that he will not be retiring at the end of the season.

Veteran striker Alessandro Del Piero has revealed that he has no intentions of retiring at the end of the season.

The 37-year-old's current contract with Juventus expires in the summer and the Italian club have confirmed that they will not be offering fresh terms.

Recent reports have claimed that the World Cup winner would hang up his boots, but he has dismissed those rumours.

"I don't want to stop playing. I want to continue for another 10 years, or at least five," he told Sky Italia.

"My future is at Juventus for now. In my mind there is only Juve.

"When you still have the legs, the passion and the mind you only think of playing. I don't think of stopping or playing elsewhere."

Del Piero has spent 18 years with the Turin-based side.
