David Ornstein claims ‘incredible’ talent set for Liverpool exit despite impressing Arne Slot
Liverpool are yet to bring in a new signing this summer but Arne Slot may now offload a highly-rated talent at Anfield.
The Reds started their cam🤡paign in style🙈, beating Ipswich Town 2-0 at Portman Road.
This could have been a real banana skin as the newly-promoted 🌳Tractor Boys made the﷽ir Premier League return.
Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah found the net though with Arne Slot earning praise for his coaching.
Liverpool have started the season well but fans are looking to see some transfer business beforꦗe the window shuts.
Sepp van den Berg transfer latest
Liverpool haven’t made a single ꦦfirst-team addition under Slot but missed out on one major signing last week.
The Reds saw Martin Zubimendi reject a move to Anfield, instead deciding to stay with Real Sociedad.
Liverpool may now struggle to land a new signing but could land a big sale in Sepp van den Berg.
The Athletic’s David Ornstein reports that Van de Berg is now close t❀o leaving Liverpool on a permanent basis.
The Dutch defender has been out on loan for the last three-and-a-half years, spending time with Preston North End💞, Schalke and Mainz.
Now back with Liverpool, Van den Berg seemingly won’t be playing major first-team football under compatriot Slot, despite impressing the new Reds boss this summer.
Ornstein claims t𓆏hat Liveไrpool are now set to rake in around £20million for Van den Berg, achieving the valuation they set out.
Brentford face Van den Berg fight
Ornstei♛n adds that Brentford are ‘strongly considering’ a move to sig🌞n Van den Berg.
The Bees are interested in a number of other right-footed centre backs including Burnley’s Dara O’Shea and Sheffield United’s Anel A꧅hmedhodzic.
Brentford are described as ‘long-term admirers’ of Van den Berg though and are thought to have a 🎀‘solid’ relationship with Liverpool.
This news will come as a blow to Mainz, who ♋were hoping to sign Van den Berg again this summer.
Mainz sporting director Christian Heidel suggested just last week that Van den Berg wanted to sign for Mainz, but it all depen🧸𝓀ded on Liverpool’s lofty asking price.
£20million is a huge fee for Mainz and whilst they haven’t been able to meet the demands, Brentford may – especially with Ivan Toney wanted in Saudi Arabia.
The probleꦿm for Brentford is that Bayer Leverkusen have now made their move to sign Van den Berg too.
Sky Germany’s F🌠lorian Plettenberg ꧅claims that Bayer Leverkusen have now ‘made contact’ over a deal.
B🐻undesliga champions Leverkusen are eyeing defensive addiꦗtions and Xabi Alonso is showing a ‘concrete’ interest in raiding Liverpool for Van den Berg.
This could now come down to a straight fight between guaranteed Premier League action with Brentford or the chance to play in the Champions League𝄹 with Leve🍎rkusen.
Praised as ‘incredible’ by former teammate Greg Cunningham o✱n , Van den Berg jus✨t hasn’t received chances at Liverpool since his 2019 move from PEC Zwolle.
Li🦄verpool are now ready to cash in and fans will hope that a🐽ny money coming in can be put towards a new signing for Slot.
