Alberto Aquilani says that he is keen to stay at Juventus rather than return to Liverpool at the end of the season.
The Italian is on a season-long loan at the Serie A club, who do have an option to sign him on a permanent basis come the end of the current campaign.
And the former Roma midfielder, who has impressed this season after recovering from various injuries during his time at Liverpool, is keen to stay in Italy and says that he is rediscovering his best form under Juventus coach Luigi Delneri.
“I’m feeling fine and the injuries are behind me,” Aquilani told the Liverpool Echo. “I have had some difficult moments but with hard work and the help of those who love me I have overcome them.
“Delneri is an excellent coach, prepares us well and has created an excellent team spirit.
“It hasn’t taken us long to become united as a squad and I believe this will help us enormously.
“If Delneri talks about winning the title then there is a reason. We are going through a good period and have to consolidate this week after week.”
Aquilani only started 14 games for Liverpool last season, but while at Juventus, the 26-year-old has earned a recall to the Italy squad and has helped the Turin club to fourth place in the league – just five points behind leaders AC Milan.
