Liverpool star Emre Can has finally said ‘yes’ to Juventus according to Corriere dello Sport.
Per the source, Juve beat off competition from Manchester United, Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid to strike a deal with Can.
The midfielder of Turkish origin is expected to join the Italian giants in June.
The reigning Serie A champions missed out on Pietro Pellegri, who went to Monaco and have made extra efforts to not suffer disappointment over Can as well.

Can will be a free agent at the end of the season unless he strikes a contract extension with Liverpool.
The 24-year-old can technically sign a deal with Juventus but this would not be the first time reports from Italy have got it wrong.
The central midfielder was expected to join Juve in January, he was already reported to have struck a deal.
Can and Liverpool have however, refuted every report so far claiming a deal has been agreed with Juventus.
In fact the Germany international only said a few days ago that he has not agreed a deal with anyone and that his representatives are in talks over this future.

Jurgen Klopp has not ruled Can staying on beyond the end of the season either and continues to use him as a first-team player.
“As long as people behave like Emre (Can) now – behaves and delivers – then everything is fine and normal in life,” Klopp said after the Swansea clash.
“I said it a few times, sometimes you want to sell a player, sometimes you want to keep a player and that’s how it is. We can always make a big story in the world about it.
“If we have to do it then we shake hands and say goodbye. And if he stays we don’t shake hands but say hello again. We will see.”
