Posted Thursday, December 29, 2011 by Talksport.co.uk
Blackburn and QPR have been put on red alert after Italian legend Alessandro Del Piero revealed he has no plans to retire when he leaves Juventus next summer.
Del Piero has confirmed that he will leave the Italian giants at the end of the season and there had been reports that he would hang up his boots following an illustrious career for both club and country.
But the 37-year-old insists he has no plans to walk away from the game just yet and still believes he can compete at the highest level.
Del Piero said: "I won't stop playing. There is just Juventus in my future for now. All that I am thinking about is this Serie A season and the Bianconeri.
"The hope is that we'll be able to do well in 2012 all of the things that we did well in 2011."
Both Blackburn and QPR are looking to strengthen their squad and could make a shock move to sign Del Piero at the end of the season.
Steve Kean is desperate to turn the club's fortunes around while QPR boss Neil Warnock would welcome the experience that Del Piero would bring to his squad.
