It has been well documented that Liverpool need to sign another centre half, especially after the departure of Joel Matip.
But the performances this preseason of Sepp Van den Berg have impressed new manager Arne Slott, and it will be interesting if the 22-year-old will be a part of his plans this season.
The young Dutchman was signed back in 2019, but he hasn’t really had much of a chance at Liverpool after three loans spells away from Anfield.
But it really looks like his loan spells have improved the young defender after witnessing his performances this preseason so far.

Van den Berg hasn’t really had a chance when Jurgen Klopp was in charge, and just maybe Arne Slott could be the man to give him the chance he’s been waiting for at Anfield.
He obviously has strong competition for a place in Liverpool’s defence with the obvious names ahead of him in the pecking order.
But he could be the man to provide cover in the centre of defence if the likes of van Dijk, Konate or Quansah are not available.
Preseason is a great chance for players to impress, especially when many first team players are still on holiday.
Let’s see what Slott does with Van den Berg.
