Salvatore Bochetti linked with a move to Juvetus

Rubin Kazan defender Salvatore Bochetti has been linked with a move back to Serie A.

The 25-year-old has been the subject of interest for a number of clubs and it seems that Juventus are favourites to land the player, according to Football Italia.

Bochetti's current deal at the Russian giants has a year left and there have been no talks regarding an extension.

The former Genoa man is understood to be keen on a move back to his home country in a bid to boost his chances of a regular call-up to the Italian national side.

Napoli are also thought to be monitoring the 25-year-old's situation, which could see the potential transfer fee pushed up significantly.

Bochetti joined Rubin Kazan in 2010.
