Scramble for Liverpool Bosman Emre Can grows as BVB make their move

Borussia Dortmund are joining the scramble for Liverpool's Bosman prospect Emre Can.

The Germany international is refusing to commit to new terms at Anfield and can leave for nothing at the end of the season.

Juventus GM Beppe Marotta has confirmed their intentions to sign Can, though local sources claim agents have warned the Bianconeri of competition from Manchester City.

And it's now emerging Borussia Dortmund, the former club of Reds boss Jurgen Klopp, are also keen.

Klopp is desperate to keep Can on Merseyside, but he wants around £150,000-a-week – about double his current terms - and it is an amount Liverpool will not pay.

Sami Khedira, meanwhile, is this week working on Can while they're together with the Germany squad, urging him to choose Juve as his next destination.
