Liverpool is reportedly considering a move for Micky van de Ven from Tottenham Hotspur. The club views the 25-year-old defender as a potential long-term replacement for Virgil van Dijk, whose contract expires in the summer and who is approaching the end of his career. Although Van de Ven signed a new contract with Spurs in the summer running until 2031, the team currently sits at the bottom of the Premier League table after five matches. Sources suggest that if Tottenham fails to secure European qualification again, Van de Ven may seek a new challenge.
