Liverpool waiting for one domino to fall before sealing £20m transfer deal

Liverpool might be able to seal a £20m in the coming weeks - but they require one more domino to fall before that happens.

Eindhovens Dagblad reports that PSV Eindhoven are falling short of Liverpool's valuation of Sepp van den Berg. But we knew that.

Liverpool are chasing £20m for Van den Berg and it's a price that seemingly none of his suitors are capable of paying. PSV are arguably the biggest of those suitors, though both Mainz and Wolfsburg have been linked.

PSV are the team most consistently linked, however, and things could kickstart this week now that Liverpool are done with their preseason tour. But it seems that the Reds still won't get the money they want from the Dutch champions.

ED puts that down to a pretty simple reason - PSV are actually suffering the same problem as Liverpool. They're expected to sell Jordan Teze to AS Monaco but the Ligue 1 club won't meet their asking price.

Van den Berg would likely be a replacement in the squad for Teze and if he were to move, PSV would have double the reason to meet Liverpool's £20m valuation. Not only would they have more need for the Dutchman, after all, but they'd have more cash.

Until Monaco actually pay for Teze, though, it feels unlikely that PSV pay £20m.

Sepp van den Berg's future

Van den Berg's future has been one of the main stories of the summer for Liverpool. The Reds are apparently happy to keep him in the squad for the upcoming campaign - but there are real doubts over the player's desire for that.

In fact, the latest claim from Kicker is that Van den Berg is actually reluctant to stay at Anfield. After all, he won't have a regular first-team place and that's certainly what he's after right now.

His best chance of getting that is for Teze to move to Monaco, though. Only then can we see everyone getting what they want here.
