Juventus are sure of keeping hold of Chiellini at least until the Italy defender is 33, at which time he will have been with the Serie A giant for 13 years.
Both players stayed with the club when it was relegated to Serie B for match-fixing and have been a key part of its resurgence, helping it to three successive Serie A titles.
