Jurgen Klopp is keen to convince Emre Can to sign a new contract without a release clause despite the player insisting on having such a mechanism to leave Anfield in future.
The Germany midfielder’s current deal will run out at the end of the season and he is yet to commit to a fresh terms, which is a huge cause for concern for Liverpool.
Juventus have been keeping tabs on the 23-year-old and are convinced that he will not sign a new deal, something that would allow the Bianconeri to snap him on a free transfer next summer.
Liverpool have been trying to convince the player to sign a new deal, but according to Italian outlet Calciomercato.com, Can wants a release clause of around €30m to €35m in any new contract.
The German is believed to be keen to make sure that there are no prolonged transfer sagas if he decides to leave.
