Carlos Tevez is enjoying his football in Italy and has every intention of honouring his contract at Juventus.

The Argentine forward swapped life in the Premier League at Manchester City for that in Serie A in the summer of 2013.

His debut campaign in Turin proved to be a productive one, as he broke the 20-goal barrier en route to landing the Scudetto.

Tevez is, however, not a man who tends to stay in one place for long.

There is a desire on his part, though, to remain at his current home, with a three-year deal penned upon his arrival.

Tevez told Gazzetta dello Sport: “Serie A is full of big players and it remains one of the most difficult leagues in the world.”

Pressed on whether he will stick around until 2016, he added: “Absolutely, yes.”

The 30-year-old is also enjoying working under Massimiliano Allegri following the surprise departure of Antonio Conte.

He said: “Allegri is a tranquil, intelligent person, a coach who knows a lot about football.

“He immediately commanded respect in the dressing room.

“Conte wanted me closer to the goal, Allegri asks me to diversity.”
