TURIN, Italy (AP) — Mario Mandzukic has signed a one-year extension to his contract at Juventus, keeping the Croatia forward at the Serie A club until June 2020.
Juventus announced the move on Thursday, with Mandzukic later posting on Twitter: "I'm very happy and proud to continue my adventure with Juventus. I've given everything for this shirt and will keep doing so."
Mandzukic, who turned 31 on Sunday, has made 84 appearances for the Turin club since joining from Atletico Madrid in 2015, scoring 23 times.
He has helped Juventus to back-to-back league and cup doubles and also into the final of the Champions League, where it faces Real Madrid on June 3.
Mandzukic won the Champions League with Bayern Munich in 2013, scoring the opening goal in a 2-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund.
