EIGHT clubs are in the running for the Liverpool defender

With Arne Slot taking over as Liverpool's head coach, he will need to decide on his core squad and some players he may have to say goodbye to. And there is a frantic demand for certain players.

However, this player is far from being a first choice. According to teamTALK, eight clubs are interested in the services of Liverpool defender Sepp van den Berg. Slot's compatriot under Jurgen Klopp mostly played on loan.

Thus, he spent the last three seasons at Preston, Schalke and Mainz. It is from Germany that he has most of his rivals, including Wolfsburg, Stuttgart and Hoffenheim.

The reigning German vice-champions are seen as the most confident in the negotiations and could offer the 22-year-old centre-back Champions League appearances.

Van den Berg's contract with Liverpool runs until the summer of 2026 and Transfermarkt values him at €12 million.
