“Real Madrid have also been linked, and Liverpool have an interest in Van de Ven as well as they look for defensive reinforcements this summer. “If Spurs were to get relegated, you would imagine Van de Ven would be among a number of players who’d be seeking a move out of Tottenham.” Is Micky van de Ven Liverpool’s best centre-back option?



Van de Ven is one of the best defenders in the Premier League, so it is easy to envisage him being a massive hit in a Liverpool shirt. 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.” There is little not to like about Van de Ven, barring possibly a questionable injury record, and Liverpool should be looking at him as one of their leading centre-back options this summer.
