With the end of Euro 2024, this is a golden chance for the Merseyside club to start assembling a new team. As per reports, Liverpool are now talking about promoting Sepp van den Berg to first-team. With the speculations going sky high, it is high time for Slot and his team to make proper decisions while there’s still time. 

Is Sepp van den Berg Joining Liverpool First Team?

Contrary to last year, LFC have not yet started their summer transfer window properly. In the middle of all speculations, Slot and his masterminds have a severe dilemma that lies ahead of them.

If Liverpool choose Van den Berg, will he be able to fill the void in central defence?

The 22-year-old Dutch footballer has done wonders in the Bundesliga after he was out on loan. Although the youngster had a severe ligament injury, Sepp has managed to come back stronger.

While he was at Mainz, he cleared 154 shots and won 173 aerial battles. The record of blocking 36 shots has landed Sepp van den Berg a rating of 7.04 on WhoScored.

Well, if you compare Jarell Quansah with him, Quansah’s challenge success rate is 70%; whereas Sepp’s score is at a low 57.7%.

When it comes to aerial tackles, Sepp remains at a high pedestal of 68.7%. If he is properly trained, Sepp van den Berg will earn Liverpool a lot of accolades.

Even though he did not get enough playtime at Anfield, his performances in the Bundesliga have been satisfactory. Now, it lies on LFC whether they should give Sepp a shot as their fifth centre-back.
