“I have a contract until 2017,” he said at today’s Press conference.

“I’m happy at Juventus, I’m focused on objectives that are much more important than rumours about the transfer market.

“In a month there will be the January mercato and then you (the media) will be happy to move players from one place to another. We’re thinking about what we must do this year.

“There aren’t any problems with the team, I have several players available and ready to have a great game.

“It’ll be a complicated and difficult match. Against Empoli, Lazio didn’t deserve to lose, against Palermo they played well and tomorrow will be difficult.

“They want revenge for Shanghai and the Coppa Italia, we can’t afford a slip up, we are in a delicate moment and we want to gain another position within the league table.”
