Meanwhile, the five-time Champions League winner is back with his Italian League giants despite speculations that he might walk away from his deal with them.

The winger is in the last 12 months of his contract after joining them from Real Madrid in the summer of 2018. He won the league title in his first two campaigns but lost out the last term.

He has been linked with a move to Paris Saint Germain but it is left to be seen if he will see out his deal with Juve or move to a different country.
