Wolfsburg defender Micky van de Ven has been linked with a move to Liverpool this summer, but what do the stats say about how he would fit in? MICKY van de Ven is a Wolfsburg centre-back who is believed to be a favourite of new Liverpool sporting director . A pacy player who currently plays for Schmadtke’s former employers Wolfsburg, manager Jürgen Klopp is also reportedly a huge fan. Van de Ven started his career in his native Netherlands with FC Volendam before joining Die Wolfe.

A large part of van de Ven’s skillset consists of his abilities on the ball, ranking in the top 12 per cent of all centre-backs in the top five leagues for pass completion percentage.



Van de Ven passes the eye test, though, making a great recovery to clear a Union Berlin shot off the defensive line in dramatic fashion earlier this season.
