10/11/2002. Juventus jolly Gianluca Pessotto has extended the contract binding him to the Bianconeri until 2005.

The club hasn't disclosed the amount of his new salary, but the player said 'my contract is in line with the last ones stipulated at Juventus', meaning he will earn depending on the team's performances.

"I am very happy with the agreement. I could really end my career at Juventus," said Pessotto.

Side note: While he's not the greatest, he is reliable and is definitely an asset to the team. Glad to see he'll be sticking around.

"Juventus jolly"? English writers, I tell you. I suppose that means something like all-purpose player?

Anyway, I'm glad he's sticking around, but I'd like to see him on the field. Any word on when he'll be returning from injury?

a "jolly" is an all-purpose player/whatever in italian language too

Pessotto has a work ethic and laid back attitude the club certainly appreciates,i wouldn't be surprised if he sticks around beyond the end of the career as a player
