Emre Can says that he is "focused" on helping Liverpool over the remainder of his contract and denies signing a pre-contract agreement with Juventus.

Liverpool midfielder Emre Can has reiterated that he is unlikely to make a decision on his future until after the season finishes.

The 24-year-old, out of contract at Anfield in three months' time, was rumoured to have already signed a pre-contract agreement with Juventus.

Can insists that he has yet to decide where his next career move will take him, though, and for now he is simply "focused" on helping Liverpool to achieve their targets for the season.

Speaking to reporters after Tuesday's goalless draw with Porto, sealing his side's path through to the last eight of the Champions League, the German said: "Of course I have to think about my footballing future. But I haven't signed for any other club.

"I'm just focused on this season. We want to finish in second place in the Premier League, we're in the Champions League quarter-finals and we want to progress. That's all I'm focused on now. My agent has blocked all the negotiations, I'm thinking only of football."

Former club Bayern Munich have also shown an interest in Can, who has been used 33 times in all competitions this season.
