Liverpool star midfielder Emre Can has been closely linked with a move away from the Merseyside based club this summer.

The 24-year-old could end up leaving the Reds in the summer after failing to put pen-to-paper on a new deal. Can has entered the final four months of his contract which means he is allowed to hold talks with foreign clubs.

According to Tuttosport, Manchester City have set their sights on the combative midfielder.

Per the source, Juventus are set to face stiff competition from the Premier League leaders for the Germany international’s signature.

Juve have held a long-standing interest in the 24-year-old and had a bid for Emre Can rejected last summer.

Despite nearing the end of his contract, Can has remained as a key member of Jurgen Klopp’s starting eleven. Liverpool take on West Ham United in the Premier League this weekend as they look to extend their winning run.
