Basel defender Fabian Schär will “not rule out” coming to Serie A in January and Juventus interest is “gratifying.”
The Swiss international is one of the hottest properties on the transfer market, having impressed at the World Cup and in the Champions League.
His contract is set to expire in June 2015, so a mid-season move is likely to go ahead.
Basel defender Fabian Schär will “not rule out” coming to Serie A in January and Juventus interest is “gratifying.”
The Swiss international is one of the hottest properties on the transfer market, having impressed at the World Cup and in the Champions League.
His contract is set to expire in June 2015, so a mid-season move is likely to go ahead.
“It is certainly very gratifying to know that an important club like Juventus thought of me for their defence,” Schär told calciomercato.it.
“Serie A is very important with some very strong teams. It’s a very interesting tournament that any player would like to measure himself up against.
“Did I speak to Lichtsteiner about it? Yes, on rare occasions, but we did discuss Italian football with Stephan.”
He was asked whether it was possible to see him coming to an Italian club in January.
“I won’t rule it out. In football, as in life, anything is possible. At this moment I am concentrated on doing well with Basel. In January we’ll see what happens.”
