Basel star Fabian Schar is delighted knowing of Juventus’ interest and has admitted that he may leave his current club.

The Switzerland international is out of contract at the end of the season and has been constantly linked with a Serie A switch.

“It’s really gratifying to know that a big club like Juventus have thought about me for their defense,” the 22-year-old defender told Calciomercato.it.

“Serie A is certainly a very important league in which there are strong squads against which anyone would like to measure themselves.”

On leaving Basel in the January transfer window, Schar assured he was happy in Switzerland but kept his options open nevertheless.

“I’m not ruling anything out. In football, as in life, anything is possible.

“I’m happy at Basel at the moment and really concentrated on doing well with my team. In January, we’ll see what happens.”
