The Germany international has been strongly linked with Juventus in recent months, and the Daily Mirror now says that Bayern Munich will rival the Serie A champions for Can's signature.

The midfielder is free to sign a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs at any stage, though it is thought that his agent has postponed further transfer talks until the summer.

Liverpool are still desperate to keep Can and hope an encouraging end to the season, especially in the Champions League, could convince him to stay.
