Juventus Pursues Contract Extension for French Defender Pierre Kalulu

Juventus is reportedly in talks to renew the contract of French international Pierre Kalulu, who is currently tied to the club until 2029, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport. The 26-year-old defender has become a key figure for the Turin side both on the field and within the squad dynamics.

Despite interest from several clubs this summer, including teams from the Premier League, Kalulu chose to stay loyal to the Bianconeri. His commitment has prompted Juventus’ management to initiate discussions with his representatives, who appear open to negotiating an extension.

Kalulu’s Journey to Juventus

Kalulu started his football development at the Olympique Lyonnais academy but never made a professional appearance for their senior team. In 2020, he moved to AC Milan, where he played 112 matches over four seasons. He transferred to Juventus in 2024 and quickly became a reliable presence in the defense, earning three caps for France's national team (Les Bleus).
