‘Scum’, ‘Stupid idiot’ – fans fume as Can’s Liverpool departure is ‘100%’ done

We reported on Wednesday that Liverpool midfielder Emre Can was ‘100%’ on his way to Juventus this summer and would officially make the switch next week, and unsurprisingly fans have reacted unfavourably.

The 24-year-old made 166 appearances for Liverpool since his 2014-move from Bayer Leverkusen and has opted to exit Anfield for free despite the Reds reaching the Champions League final against Real Madrid this season.

Fans weren’t pleased that Can refused to sign a new deal and insulted the Merseysiders by saying he wants to play for ‘a very big club’, so his departure won’t go down well in the coming days.
