Real Madrid have joined the interest for Liverpool midfielder Emre Can.

Can can leave on a free transfer next summer, which means foreign clubs can speak to the German midfielder starting from next month.

Corriere dello Sport says while Juventus have been heavily linked, Real Madrid could also join the hunt.

The 23-year-old could be just the answer for Zinedine Zidane, who is in the market for another midfielder.

Can has shown flashes of brilliance this season but the impending arrival of Naby Keita may soften the blow of losing Can next month or in the summer for nothing.
