For months, the Italian media has been full of claims around the future of Emre Can.
Moving to Juventus from Liverpool on a free transfer, the midfielder hasn’t been able to impose himself and it’s thought the Turin club would be open to a sale.
Manchester United and Everton have been repeatedly linked in Italy although it’s not felt like there’s been a great deal in it. Now Bild comes to join the party.
On Monday morning, Christian Falk, a journalist close to Bayern, reported they’d now pulled out.
The other clubs are ‘playing poker’, although there’s a possibility they’ve been dragged in to make Dortmund look more glorious if they complete the deal.
Can missed Juventus’ defeat to Napoli on Sunday, with it being claimed he had the flu.
A transfer fee is estimated at around €30m, and Can would have to take a pay cut to sign for Dortmund.
He may have to do the same for any of United, Tottenham or Arsenal, given it’s stated he’s currently paid €16m a year before tax.
