The German midfielder complained about speculation over his future this week - but what does he expect?
With Manchester City on the horizon and a Merseyside derby to come, not to mention the small matter of a trip to Crystal Palace at the weekend, Liverpool's season is entering crunch time.
Distractions, then, are about as welcome at Anfield as a Boris Johnson lecture tour.
These are vital games, vital days – a Champions League quarter-final, a trip to Goodison, a crucial battle to secure a top-four finish. It requires focused minds, from the top down.
For Emre Can, the next seven weeks could have extra significance. They could be his last as a Liverpool player.
His Reds contract expires at the end of June, and with time ticking there is no sign of an agreement arriving. The club are resigned to the idea that the midfielder will depart on a free transfer in the summer, four years after arriving from Bayer Leverkusen.
