Medhi Benatia has committed his future to Juventus by signing a permanent deal.

Medhi Benatia has joined Juventus on a permanent deal from Bayern Munich following a successful season on loan in Turin.

The 30-year-old Morocco defender, who has made 12 Serie A appearances for the Bianconeri, also featuring on their run to the Champions League final, has committed to Juve until 2020.

A statement published on the Italian club's official website on Friday said Juve had exercised their option to make Benatia's initial season-long loan from Bayern permanent.

Six days ago, the former Roma and Udinese centre-back cut short a television interview that followed Juve's 1-1 league draw with Torino after claiming to hear a racist insult in his earpiece.

Broadcaster Rai has apologised to the player and is investigating the incident.
