Emre Can is top of the list for the Juventus midfield this summer and reports suggest they will continue their pursuit of the player who is yet to sign a contract renewal at Liverpool.
The Bianconeri are leaving it late to sign a few more vital players for the squad, most notably a central midfielder, despite having being linked with Steven N’Zonzi and Blaise Matuidi for almost two months.
Despite having a shortlist, Gazzetta dello Sport, report that Emre Can is still top of Juve’s priorities given Fabio Paratici’s fondness for the player who he reportedly scouted on a number of occasions.
Gazzetta claim Can is yet to sign a new contracts with Liverpool and his existing contract is due to expire next summer.
Juventus are offering €25m however Liverpool value the player at closer to €30m, meaning Matuidi, N’Zonzi and Kevin Strootman remain on the shortlist as alternatives for now.
Top target? He is well below Sami, Miralem and Claudio. I would even prefer to see young Bentancur playing ahead of Can. He has proven hardly of great promise in the PL which is much easier tactically.
