According to talkSPORT, Juventus have given Liverpool midfielder Emre Can a week to sign a pre-contract agreement with them, or he can forget about a summer transfer to the Serie A club.
The 24-year old is out of contract at Anfield in June, and although Jurgen Klopp wants the German international to commit his long-term future to Liverpool, there is no sign that Can is willing to do that.
The midfield player is now free to talk to foreign clubs about joining them for free at the end of the season, and it has widely been accepted that he would be moving to Turin to play his football with the Italian champions.
However, Juventus have grown tired of the stalling being used by Can and his representatives and have now given him a deadline to make up his mind.
Can joined Liverpool from Bayer Leverkusen in June 2014 and has made 162 appearances in all competitions for the Reds so far.
