The former Italy international believes the reigning Serie A champions need another midfielder and feels a January raid on Liverpool would make sense

Emre Can would be “ideal” for Juventus during the transfer window, says Alessandro Del Piero.

The Germany international is yet to commit to fresh terms at Anfield and is heading towards free agency at the end of the season as a result.

A pre-contract agreement could be reached with potential suitors in the new year, while a cut-price transfer is also a possibility if Liverpool look to cash in.

Del Piero believes Juventus should be pushing for such a deal, with the reigning Serie A champions in need of greater squad depth and already being heavily linked with the 23-year-old.
