Juventus GM Beppe Marotta says they expect to keep hold of Carlos Tevez.

Marotta was speaking as Juve fell 3-1 to Barcelona in last night's Champions League final.

He said, "The desire of the player is the predominant aspect in these situations, so we'll talk to Tevez and see what he wants to do.

"I heard his agent's comments, we have great respect for Tevez and want to keep him. We hope he wants to remain, but we must be prepared for anything.

"He has given so much to Juventus and I hope he can continue."
