Mascherano to stay at Barca
Barcelona sporting director claims that the 32-year-old will stay at the Catalan club and not join Juventus.
Javier Mascherano will not be joining Juventus and will be staying at Barcelona according to Ariedo Braida, Barcelona's sporting director.
"It is certain that Javier will not play for Juventus next season,” he told Rai.
This comes as quite a surprise as the Argentinian, who can play either in defence or midfield, was expected to join his former team-mate Dani Alves at the Turin club.
Mascherano has been with Barcelona for six years and is now expected to complete at least another season with La Blaugrana.
