For once, the Italian newspapers are agreeing on something and that’s Emre Can not going to Juventus until the summer.
Convincing Liverpool to let the Germany international go in January was always a long shot, and while that isn’t going to stop them from trying, their attempts will be futile.
Gazzetta dello Sport start things off on a positive note, revealing that a meeting with the Reds’ midfielder is due to take place soon, one in which the Turin based outfit will put forward a €5-6m transfer offer and a contract worth around €4.5/year.
However, even they know Liverpool ‘won’t easily change their mind’, a feeling confirmed by Corriere dello Sport, who explain Jürgen Klopp’s side won’t exactly be impressed by the amount on the table, especially since they will most likely get €130m+ for Coutinho from Barcelona in the coming days.
Liverpool have ‘no intention’ of letting the former Bayer Leverkusen starlet leave before the end of the season, and hopefully this will be the end of what has been a rather tedious saga.
Now, all the 23-year-old has to do is accept Juventus offer for the summer.
Either that, or finally renew at Anfield.
