Juventus keeping them at the Serie A club until 2017 and 2018
respectively.
Buffon's deal was due to expire by the summer of 2015, but his new
contract has added 3 more years to his initially 13 years career for
his club.
Chiellini, 30, had a contract until the end of this season, too, and
has agreed a new deal that would keep him at the club for three
additional years.
Club President, Andrea Agnelli, indicated that their leadership was
key as their stay with Juventus has been helpful in bringing the club
to the top.
"The fact that it will be my last contract was a factor, but I'm not
worried about that: I feel energised. As both parties wished to
continue, it was the natural choice to extend my contract for another
two years. I'll need energy and courage to make my career last even
longer," Buffon said.
Chiellini also showed his satisfaction by vowing to keep giving his
all for the club
Buffon has won five Serie A titles with Juventus, plus two which were
taken off the club as part of the 2006 match-fixing scandal.
