Miralem Pjanic scored the opening goal in Juve’s 2-0 victory over Lazio and dedicated it to the fans and club, insisting “I’m very happy to remain.”
The Bosnian midfielder scored a sublime half-volley to give Juve the lead but believes the players have a way to go yet.
“Our fitness levels aren’t the best right now, but we had a good performance at times,” he told Sky Italia.
“It’s not the sharpest Juve yet, but it’s important to keep winning, especially in a tough fixture like this.
“We’re working to get into shape and there’s no better way than to have six points in the bank.
“The new contract? I am very happy to remain at this wonderful club, so I dedicate the goal to the fans, my teammates and the club. I have improved so much in recent years and it is thanks to my experience here. I thank everyone for their support and help.
“I had a slight muscular problem, but nothing serious. I’ll just take a day to rest and evaluate next week, as we need to make it three with a victory against Parma before the break for international duty.”
