Dutch star on Liverpool's radar after SUCCESSFUL audition | OneFootball

Liverpool have a Dutch star to consider after he excelled in his audition in front of Arne Slot.

It's long been a tradition that the Reds look at those who find a way to cope with the test of playing in front of a packed out Anfield and deliver a performance to remember in defying Liverpool's big stars.

When the team played Inter Milan at the San Siro earlier this season, Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes made a point of joining the team and getting a first-hand look at the major Italian talents.

It's entirely possible that Liverpool could look back to another performance that went awry for them.

PSV could be Liverpool's hunting ground

When the Dutch giants came to Anfield in the Champions League back in November and comprehensively won 4-1, one of the main big stars on show was defender Yarek Gasiorowski.

The 20-year-old is still in his main breakout season, despite featuring for Valencia for two years before he moved to the Netherlands. He's on track to play more minutes in this campaign than all three of his previous first-team outings combined. He's finally getting a more prominent role.

In that famous performances against Liverpool, we won his only tackles and all three duels he contested, alongside making eight clearances, three blocks, two recoveries and five sprints.

Of course, the Reds had an off night and couldn't make their chances count, squandering 2.5xg to only score once, compared to four goals that came from PSV's 2.17xg created. But that criticism would do players like Gasiorowski a disservice. His efforts really thwarted Arne Slot's game plan.
