Giuseppe Rossi's agent claims that the Italy forward is happy at Villarreal and is in talks to extend his contract.

Rossi is a reported target for Juventus - but with no offer having been made by the Turin giants so far, the 22-year-old is likely to stay put.

"Rossi is happy where he is," said his agent Federico Pastorello.

"We are in talks for a contract extension with Villarreal.

"Of course, he is a player that - should he get a call from a top club - he would take it into consideration.

"If that club was Italian even better."

Juve have expressed admiration for Rossi. But a possible move for the Villarreal striker would take place only if French striker David Trezeguet left Juve.

Trezeguet confirmed earlier this week he plans to stay.

Rossi last played in Italy in 2007 on a successful loan spell at Parma from Manchester United, when he scored nine goals in 19 appearances.

He is under contract with Villarreal until June 2013.
