Claudio Marchisio says he his "glad to have been linked with big European clubs" after again hinting at leaving Juventus this summer.

The Italy international is rumoured to have caught the attention of Manchester United and Monaco, but any interest is yet to result in any concrete bid.

However, Marchisio has refused to rule out leaving the Serie A champions and remains open to a move elsewhere.

"Every summer the possibility that I might go away is always talked about," he told Gazzetta dello Sport.

"I'm certainly glad that big European clubs are linked to my name."

The Italy midfielder joined the Bianconeri from Empoli back in 2008 and made 37 appearances for the club last term as Juve won their second successive league title.

And despite flirting with a move away from Juventus Stadium, Marchisio also stated that he could happily see out the rest of his playing days with Antonio Conte's side.

"My dream is to still end my career with Juventus," he added.

"Even if I know that in football, you never know."
