The 25-year-old has recently been strongly linked with a move to the Italian side.

"I am very pleased to hear that Juventus are interested in signing me. It is not the first time they are after me, but maybe this is the right time," Bocchetti told Tuttosport.

"I don't know yet how concrete their interest is, but Juventus would be a good opportunity for me to continue my career. My agent is keeping me up to date of what is happening.

"However, I want to underline that I still have a contract with Rubin Kazan for one more year, and I am quite happy in Russia."

Bocchetti joined Rubin Kazan from Italian side Genoa in 2010.
