FURIOUS EMRE CAN REITERATES COMMITMENT TO JUVENTUS DESPITE BEING LEFT OUT OF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SQUAD

Emre Can says he is still committed to Juventus after an initial angry reaction to being left out of the club’s squad for the group stage of the Champions League.

The midfielder and Mario Mandzukic were notable absentees from Maurizio Sarri’s group, with new signings Adrien Rabiot and Aaron Ramsey among those preferred.

Before training with Germany on Wednesday, Can confirmed he had held talks with Rabiot’s former club Paris Saint-Germain over a transfer to the Ligue 1 champions before Monday’s deadline.

However, Can appears to regret making those comments as he used social media to clarify the situation later in the day.

Emre Can, who has only played 30 minutes in Serie A this term, made six Champions League appearances for Juve last term.

Juve have been drawn in Group D alongside LaLiga leaders Atletico Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen and Lokomotiv Moscow.
