Van de Ven has stood out as a natural option for Liverpool, given his Premier League experience and the fact that he plays as a left-sided centre-back, impressing overall. I would believe that he’d want to come to Liverpool, from what I’ve heard, but I’m not sure the feeling is totally mutual at this moment in time.” Should Liverpool look to sign Micky van de Ven?

The Dutchman is still relatively young, especially for a central defender, and former Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou has made it very clear what he thinks of him, saying: “He’s top. He could be as good as he wants to.

Once he gets going, technically he’s good, his ability to cover ground is phenomenal. You’d set him up against any striker in the world, without any fear that he will get outmuscled and definitely not outrun.” It may be that Liverpool have someone else lined up instead of Van de Ven in the summer – Borussia Dortmund’s Nico Schlotterbeck, for example – but he should continue to be viewed as an excellent option.
