Sampdoria’s Dennis Praet insists he has ‘no plans’ to join champions Juventus and is focused on his current club.
The Belgian, who moved to Marassi from Anderlecht in the summer of 2016, has amassed 28 appearances so far this season and contributed three assists.
His performances are said to have caught the eye of the Old Lady, but the 23-year-old played down talk of a move to Turin.

His performances are said to have caught the eye of the Old Lady, but the 23-year-old played down talk of a move to Turin.
“I have read about it,” Praet told Gazzetta dello Sport. “Attracting the interest of strong teams is pleasing to me, it shows I am playing well.
“But right now I am only thinking about Sampdoria. At the moment, I have no plans to leave Genoa.”
Samp visit the Juventus Stadium for this afternoon’s Serie A clash and Praet remembers his previous visit to the home of the Bianconeri, with Samp on the receiving end of a 4-1 defeat.
“I remember last season’s match in Turinwell, my first at the Stadium. I was impressed.
“It will be tough against the Bianconeri, given that they are the best team in Italy.
“I can’t forget the first 25 minutes, during which they attacked us in an incredible way.”
