According to a recent report from The Athletic’s David Ornstein, Van Den Berg is set to leave Anfield on a long-term deal.
The Reds are confident they’ll £20 million valuation will be met, which would pave the way for the Dutch centre-back to move on in search of a new challenge.

After making just four first-team appearances in over five years, it is clear Van Den Berg has no place in the club’s future. The story could be very different with the Bees though.
Frank’s side appear the most heavily linked with Liverpool’s number 72 and could make a formal approach before the end of the window.
