Emre Can has insisted that the impasse in talks with Liverpool over a new contract "is not about money", amid ongoing links with a move to Italian champions Juventus.
The 23-year-old, also linked with a switch to Bayern Munich, has failed to agree fresh terms with the Reds and is allowed to talk to other clubs from next month over a Bosman transfer.
Can could feasibly pen a pre-contract agreement with Juve at the start of January, but the Germany international has hinted that he has yet to make a decision over his future beyond the end of the campaign.
Asked whether he intends to remain at Anfield, Can told the Liverpool Echo: "Why do you ask me this? Really, I concentrate on this season and let my agent handle all the rest.
"It is not about money, that's all I can say. Yes I could [sign a pre-contract with another club next month], but tomorrow I could also sign for Liverpool. We'll see."
Germany chief Oliver Bierhoff claimed earlier this week that there is a 60-80% chance Can will leave Liverpool next summer.
