Emre Can has stated that he is proud to be a part of Liverpool FC and is delighted that the fans sing a song for him during games.

The 20-year-old has fast become a fan favourite in Liverpool with the Kop chanting “Emre Can, Emre Can, Emre Can”

The tribute song to the normal tune of “Liver-pool, Liver-pool, Liver-pool” was a ringing endorsement of the affection the young German’s performances had already generated.

Can has impressed since arriving in the Summer from Bayer Leverkusen and has established himself as a key member of the squad.

“I realised it during the game and I was massively proud.” Emre Can told the Liverpool Echo.

“Even now, I sometimes think back that I’ve only been here a couple of months and for the fans to sing a song for me is a massive thing for me, it’s really important.

“I’m just proud to be here.”
