Borussia Dortmund complete signing of former Liverpool midfielder

Borussia Dortmund have announced the capture of Emre Can from Juventus on loan for the remainder of the season with an obligation to buy for €25m (£21m) plus bonuses. 

The Germany international has fallen out of favour with the Old Lady following his arrival from Liverpool in 2018. 

Can has been restricted to just two league starts in Italy this season and was left out of Juventus' Champions League squad ahead the group stages. 

Manchester United and Everton had been credited with an interest in the 26-year-old, but Borussia Dortmund have won the race to land the midfielder, who can also play centre-back and full-back. 

With an eye on Euro 2020, Can is keen on regular game time to prove he deserves his place in the Germany squad ahead of the summer competition. 

Can is expected to be Borussia Dortmund's second arrival this month following the high profile capture of teenager Erling Haaland. 

The Norwegian has made an immediate impact in Germany having already hit five goals in just 59 minutes of league action. 

Haaland's signing saw Paco Alcacer leave Dortmund for Villarreal, with the Spanish forward completing his £21m return to Spain earlier this week.
