Manchester United fans react after being linked with former Liverpool midfielder Emre Can

Former Liverpool midfielder Emre Can could be set to make a Premier League return this month.

Can departed Anfield on a free transfer in 2018 to join Juventus, but after a bright start to life at the Italian giants, he has since fallen down the pecking order and endured a tough time under new manager Maurizio Sarri so far this season.

As a result, the German international is expected to leave Juve this month, with Manchester United, according to ESPN , eyeing a move for the 25-year-old.

They report that Can, and Newcastle midfielder Sean Longstaff, are among the options being considered by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as his side look to deal with their midfield injury crisis.

But United fans have been left unimpressed with recent reports linking them with the former Bayer Leverkusen man.

Can has made just seven appearances for the Serie A champions so far this season, with Sarri also leaving him out of his 25-man squad for the group stages of the Champions League.
