Juventus are wrong to target Liverpool midfielder Emre Can and should go for Barcelona’s Ivan Rakitic instead, according to Gianluca Vialli.

Emre Can is reportedly all set to join Juve this summer, but Vialli – who scored over 50 goals for the Bianconeri between 1992 and 1996, winning their last Champions League – believes they would be better off keeping Sami Khedira and pursuing Rakitic.

“Emre Can doesn’t fully convince me for Juve, he doesn’t set my pulses racing,” the former Chelsea and Italy striker told Sky Sport Italia.

“I’m not convinced that he’d do better than Khedira because he’s not the perfect fit, in my opinion.

“Juve need to strengthen their midfield, but Rakitic would be better than Emre Can.”
