Liverpool plot shock move for Micky van de Ven

Liverpool are plotting a sensational move for Tottenham captain Micky van de Ven, according to reports.

The Reds are known to be admirers of the Dutch defender, whom Spurs appointed as their new skipper in the summer to replace departed centre-back partner Cristian Romero.

Per Football Insider, Liverpool plan to launch a swoop for Van de Ven either in January or next summer, with Manchester United now also said to have made him their top defensive target.

However, Tottenham apparently will not entertain any offers for the former Wolfsburg star, who only signed a bumper new contract in August that is valid until 2031.

Erling Haaland makes decision 'amid Arsenal interest'

Arsenal fans holding out any slight hope for a shock move for Erling Haaland after the Manchester City verdict look set to be left disappointed.

There has been very tentative speculation that the reigning Premier League champions would be interested in signing Haaland if the severity of City’s punishment - should their appeal fail - results in him looking to leave the club.

But according to TEAMtalk, the Norwegian goal machine would prefer a switch to LaLiga over Arsenal, having been frequently linked with Real Madrid during recent years.

Haaland’s camp are said to be looking at 2027 as a potential exit date from the Etihad, despite signing a bumper new contract last year that runs until the summer of 2034.

The report states that while Paris Saint-Germain are showing strong interest in the French defender, Arsenal are also watching developments.
