Juventus Put Liverpool Star on Top of Transfer Targets List, Reds Do Not Want To Sell

Juventus have put Emre Can on the top of their midfield transfer targets list according to reports in Italy.

Tuttosport report that Juventus have their eye on Can and that he is ‘top of the list’.

Per the source, the Serie A champions are aware that Liverpool want to extend his deal which ends in 12 months and are monitoring his situation.

Can has yet to sign a contract extension but reports in the British press claim that Liverpool will keep him on their books regardless of whether he agrees to a new deal or not.

The Liverpool Echo reported that Liverpool will rebuff all offers made for the central midfielder of Turkish origin.

The Reds are hopeful that Can will extend his contract.

Liverpool could be playing a risky game as should they keep Can at the club without a new contract deal he could end up signing for another side on a free transfer in just six-months time.

The 23-year-old is currently on international duty at the Confederations Cup in Russia and is set to miss the beginning of pre-season training with Liverpool.

Can played an important role in Germany’s equaliser in the 1-1 draw against Chile in Group B yesterday.
