Breaking: £56m-rated star opens the door to a stunning move to Liverpool from Premier League rivals

 

 

Liverpool have been given a significant lift in the transfer market, with reports suggesting long-term target Micky van de Ven is open to a move to Anfield.

The Tottenham defender, capable of playing both centre-back and left-back, was closely monitored by Liverpool during his days at Wolfsburg. New claims now indicate that Van de Ven is weighing up his future at Spurs and would welcome the opportunity to join the Reds.

The Dutchman has impressed in the Premier League and appears ready for a step above an inconsistent Tottenham side. Tall, rapid and composed, he fits the profile of the modern centre-half, while his attacking ability also makes him a viable option on the left.

Liverpool see him as a potential long-term heir to fellow countryman Virgil van Dijk, who is no longer at his peak. However, the 24-year-old has also attracted interest from giants such as Real Madrid, meaning any delay could see him snapped up elsewhere in Europe.

Spurs are expected to fight hard to keep him, especially from domestic rivals. Historically, Tottenham have preferred selling stars abroad rather than strengthening Premier League competitors, as seen with Harry Kane, Gareth Bale and Luka Modrić.

If Van de Ven earns a major move, he could follow a similar path. While a switch to Liverpool may seem ambitious, securing his signature would represent a huge win for the Reds.
