Basle defender Fabian Schar has welcomed interest from Juventus.
The young Swiss is a target for some of Europe's biggest clubs.
"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 (Lichtsteiner)."
