Avoid? Most Significant Fact About Liverpool Target Emre

After a brilliant season, Liverpool are all set to reinforce their squad in summer and challenge for bigger things next season.
The merseysiders are targeting numerous players for different positions and lately, Bayer Leverkusen star Emre Can has been heavily linked with a move to Anfield.
According to German source Bild, Liverpool are closing in on 12 million Euro deal to lure Emre.
Brendan Rodgers has talked about signing first team players and not squad players for the new season but does Emre really fit the bill.
The Liverpool boss really likes versatile players but the Leverkusen star is perhaps too versatile to be confusing. Squawka and Whoscored have mainly graded him as a defender and if you look at the last season’s stats provided below, his ideal position is not clear.

 
 
 
 
 
Reds might use him in central/defensive midfield  but the above given stats and his age certainly do indicate that Emre is not a specialist midfielder, nor will he jump straight into Liverpool starting XI.
Long summer to go, Liverpool should avoid making rapid decisions as they have all the time to analyze targets. Moreover, with Champions League football a major plus, Reds can surely target quality experienced stars.
