Andres Iniesta won’t be joining Juventus in the summer, as the midfielder has renewed his contract with Barcelona.
The Spanish international was set to become a free agent in the summer, with rumours the Bianconeri had made initial enquiries about bringing him to Turin.
It was a strategy which bore similarities to the decision to bring Andrea Pirlo to Juventus Stadium on a free transfer in 2011.
