It is reported that Juventus will offer Miralem Pjanic a new improved contract to reflect his importance at the club.
The Bosnia-Herzegovina midfielder has been linked with a move to the likes of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester City this summer.
However, Gazzetta dello Sport claims the Old Lady want to build their team for the seasons ahead around the 28-year-old.
As such, they are willing to increase his wages from his current €4.5m a year to €6m plus bonuses.

According to the Italian daily, Juve view Pjanic as an integral part of their plans. With Gigi Buffon gone and the advancing years of Andrea Barzagli, Giorgio Chiellini and Claudio Marchisio, the Serie A champions are in need of fresh on-field leadership.
As well as being an indespensible part of Max Allegri’s starting eleven, Juve also want Pjanic to provide assistance to young players and help instil the club’s winning mentality into new signings.
Pjanic, signed from Roma in 2016, has three years remaining on his current contract in Turin.
