Juventus may have been handed a boost in their pursuit of Emre Can as Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits the midfielder could run his contract down.
Juve are understood to be in pole position for Can, and while Klopp ruled out selling the German before the end of the season, he revealed the player – whose contract expires this summer – was keeping his options open.
“He’ll stay beyond the winter,” he told DAZN.
“Emre is still a young lad but he has developed into a great player and is very important for us.

“He’ll stay beyond the winter,” he told DAZN.
“Emre is still a young lad but he has developed into a great player and is very important for us.
“Sometimes a player just wants to sit out his contract. That’s not cool for the club, but there are moments in which you have to accept it.
“And as long as the player behaves like Emre does, then I have absolutely nothing to complain about. He gives everything he has and identifies with the club.”
