I am sure that it was just some negotiation strategy. If Pirlo truly wanted to stay (and assumed LCM role), I honestly don't think that Milan would give him only one year extension. He probably was determined to leave anyway, and that certainly came very handy.
Of course we probably are never going to find out what the truth is. I am just upset that he was totally lacking interest in playing for us in the past few seasons (one can argue that's how he "looked") but he seemed a changed person with Jube. That annoyed me greatly; then him sprouting attacks on Milan management (including Allegri) and not skimping on his joy when winning the scudetto just pissed me off.
