Liverpool are emerging as serious contenders to sign Netherlands starlet Memphis Depay in the summer, talkSPORT has been told.
The 21-year-old winger, who starred at the World Cup last summer, is being tipped to link up with his former national team boss Louis van Gaal at Manchester United in a £20million deal.
But, according to Dutch football expert Marcel van der Kraan, Liverpool are poised to pip their Premier League rivals to the pacey PSV youngster's signature.
Speaking on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, he said: "People think Louis van Gaal will take him, but the fact that Liverpool scouts are in Eindhoven almost every week to watch the player signals to me that Liverpool are a strong contender for the boy."
