After a 20-year illustrious career in Italian football, Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero is not ready to retire just yet.
It had been thought the 35-year-old striker could retire this summer as he is yet to sign a contract extension, even though his current deal expires this summer.
Il Pinturicchio told Juventus Channel: "I hope to play for a long time and to be able to give the maximum under all aspects, then I will know when the moment to stop arrives.
"I am looking at the present and the next season. I am looking at today and next year then we'll think about it.
"Right now I am dedicated to the profession of being a player, which is what I was born to do.
"Today I am only thinking about playing then tomorrow who knows."
