Man United receive transfer boost as Real Madrid prepare shock move for €40m Liverpool star this summer

La Liga giants Real Madrid are the latest side to be linked with a move for Liverpool midfielder Emre Can.

The 24-year-old has been closely linked with a move to Juventus by Italian agent Federico Pastorello who went onto state that the combative midfielder is worth €40 million.

However, Can could end up leaving Liverpool for free after failing to put pen-to-paper on a new contract with the Merseyside based club.

According to the latest report in Tuttosport, Real Madrid are contemplating a move for Emre Can as they look to revamp their midfielder after a disappointing La Liga title defence.

Per the source, manager Zinedine Zidane is considering moving several players on including Germany international Toni Kroos.
