Andrea Pirlo has revealed that he is hopeful of remaining in Antonio Conte's plans after making the switch to New York City.
The 36-year-old elected to leave Juventus earlier this summer to begin a new stage of his career in MLS in a move which many believe could harm his chances of staying in the Italy squad, but Pirlo is keen to add to his 115 caps.
"Yes, I spoke to Conte about the decision I had in mind. He said he could come here on vacation to see the games. We have a good rapport, I am at his disposal and it's his decision whether to call me or not," the midfielder told reporters in New York.
Pirlo is available to make his New York debut against Orlando City on Sunday.
