Man Utd target Claudio Marchisio not planning Juventus FC exit



Claudio Marchisio says he has no intention of leaving Juventus amid interest from Manchester United.

United boss David Moyes watched Juventus' Serie A game against Cagliari earlier this month, leading to speculation that the Red Devils are looking to sign Marchisio.

Juve this week held talks about a deal for Inter Milan's Fredy Guarin, which has further fuelled speculation about Marchisio's future at the club.

However, he insists he is fully focused on playing for the Italian giants, and still sees his long-term future in Turin.

"Every transfer window things get talked about, but I'm happy about it as I have a long contract at Juventus and I intend to honour it," Marchisio told Rai Sport.

Marchisio's team-mate, Arturo Vidal, has also been linked with United, who are widely expected to strengthen their midfield before the transfer window closes.
