However, Juventus are aware that it will be difficult to get a deal over the line with Liverpool for Can as the Reds are not interested in selling the German this summer.
Liverpool are prepared to risk losing him for free at the end of next season, rather than sell him in the final month of the transfer window without getting a replacement.
