Report: Juventus defensive pair in line for new deals

Juventus have reportedly decided to hand new deals to Patrice Evra and Andrea Barzagli.

As it stands, the defensive pairing are both due to become free agents at the end of the season.

However, the Italian champions are eager to tie the experienced duo down to fresh terms, according to Tuttosport.

The report adds that ex-Manchester United left-back Evra will be offered a 12-month contract, while Barzagli will be given a two-year extension.

The pair have made a combined 46 Serie A appearances this term.
