Liverpool star Emre Can has agreed to join Juventus at the end of the season according to Italian agent Federico Pastorello.
The agent who represents the likes of Luis Nani, Patrice Evra and Antonio Candreva claims Can will arrive on a free transfer over the summer.
“Emre Can is a huge coup, even more so because he’ll arrive on a free transfer. Marotta and Paratici have done very well,” he told Tuttosport.
“Juventus are a club that attract champions, and important signals are coming from the German.”

Juventus have a great track record when it comes to free transfers having signed Paul Pogba, Andrea Pirlo, Fernando Llorente and Sami Khedira for minimal investments over the past few years.
Can has just a few months remaining on his current Liverpool contract and is free to talk with clubs regarding his future beyond the end of the season.
The midfielder of Turkish origin could however, still end up striking an extension deal with the Reds.
The 24-year-old has not actually ruled out the possibility of staying, in fact he has refrained from confirming anything concerning his future.
Can said in January: “I haven’t signed anything (with Juventus) or anyone. I am talking with everyone.
“Of course I am talking with Liverpool. Why not? I still have a contract here. It is an amazing club. What can I say? My agent does the rest. I just concentrate on the scene, on my performance and the football. I will give everything for this team.”
Reds manager Jurgen Klopp has continued to show faith in Can despite his contract situation and gave him a starting role in the 2-2 draw against Tottenham over the weekend.
