Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani insists he wants to stay at Anfield as he feels he owes them more after an injury-plagued first season.
The 25-year-old joined Liverpool FC last summer in a £20million deal but was not able to make his debut until late October because of an ankle injury sustained while still at Roma.
Aquilani made just 13 starts last season but finally settled into the starting XI for the last four matches of the campaign.
And despite speculation linking him to a swift return to Italy with Juventus, Aquilani is determined to stay and prove his worth to Liverpool FC manager Rafa Benitez.
"I am staying at Liverpool to make up for many things," he said. "I have finally recovered from my ankle injury.
"Juve have approached me in the past and now I’m reading of their interest, but I really don’t know anything about it."
