Pavel Nedved says Juventus ‘will see what happens with Gonzalo Higuain after the World Cup’ and that ‘we’ll make a decision’ with Mario Mandzukic.
Higuain and Mandzukic have been the subject of exit speculation in recent weeks, and Nedved seemingly left the door open to both strikers leaving Juve.
“We’re not worried, Higuain is our player and has a contract with us,” the Vice-President told Sky Sport Italia.
“We’ll see what happens after the World Cup. Mandzukic? Players must always be happy.

“You shouldn’t hold them back, you need them to stay happy. We’ll make a decision together.”
The former Napoli striker joined the Bianconeri for an Italian-record €90m two years but failed to fire them beyond the 2017-18 Champions League quarter-finals, amidst reports he could be swapped for Inter’s Mauro Icardi or Juventus’ Alvaro Morata.
The Croatian, meanwhile, is understood to be increasingly frustrated with his wing role in Turin and has been linked with moves to China, Manchester United and Milan.
