The latest transfer rumours regarding Liverpool is that they are being linked with PSV Eindhoven midfielder Joey Veerman.

The midfielder enjoyed a very good season last season, with 21 goal involvements.

Veerman is versatile in being able to play defensive and attacking roles.

Liverpool’s interest in the PSV midfielder is centred on the want for a defensive midfielder to allow Mac Allister to play in a more advanced midfield role where he can be more instrumental and creative.

With recent interest from other clubs regarding Endo, it makes sense that Liverpool are looking for other midfield options.

Arne Slot will be very aware of Veerman’s credentials to improve his team, and it will be interesting to see if Liverpool want him enough to put in a concrete offer.

The Kopite View

It’s very encouraging that Liverpool are being linked with another midfielder, especially one as highly rated as Veerman.

There are rumours that Endo could leave, but regardless if he stays or goes, he really isn’t mobile or good enough to be playing regularly in a defensive midfield role for Liverpool.

Veerman’s impressive attacking ability is also advantageous for Liverpool’s midfield despite him probably being used in a more defensive midfield role.

Regardless if Liverpool sign Veerman despite the rumours, I’m convinced that it is only a matter of time before Slot strengthens his squad.
