Liverpool have rejected an offer from PSV Eindhoven for Dutch defender Sepp van den Berg.
The bid from the Eredivisie club for the 22-year-old is believed to have been worth €10m (£8.4m) and falls well short of the Anfield club’s valuation of closer to £20m for the centre-back.
Van den Berg is currently with the Reds squad on their pre-season tour in the United States and started in the club’s win against Real Betis.
He joined Liverpool from PEC Zwolle in June 2019 and has since had loan spells at Preston, Schalke 04 and Mainz.
Van den Berg was with Mainz last season, making 33 league appearances and scoring three goals as he helped them secure their Bundesliga status.
The German side wanted him back but the two clubs were too far apart in their valuations for a deal to be done.
