Italian champions Juventus have increased their effort to prise away Emre Can from Liverpool after this season.
The German midfielder has under seven months left on his current Liverpool deal, and talks of extending it has stalled since last month.
Liverpool are keen for Can to remain at Anfield, but since they opened talks of renewing his deal at the beginning of last season, little progress has been made, and the German appears to be on his way out.
Several top European sides would like to have Can in their midfield, but Juventus appear to be keener to offer the midfielder a new home.
The Italians have a depleted midfield and Max Alegri believes Can can helped them solve their midfield problem.
According to MailSport, the Old Ladies of Turin have prepared an offer of £4.5 million for Can should he move to Turin.
This offer would make Can one of the top earners in Juve, with only Paolo Dybala, Miralem Pjanic, and Gonzalo Higuain earning more.
Can’s has repeatedly claimed that his decision not to sign a new deal with Liverpool is beyond money, but insiders believe it to be the German’s desire to have a realistic release clause attached to his new deal.
