They are not alone as Ajax, PSV Eindhoven, Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City have also shown interest in the 6ft 3ins centre-back who has scored three goals this season. 


Liverpool, however, watched him again last week as Schuurs played for Holland U19s against Hungary and Slovenia.

The teenager has been advised to stay in Holland to help develop his career but will find an offer from Liverpool difficult to resist.

Jurgen Klopp still wants to sign Virgil van Dijk from Southampton and has considered compatriot Stefan de Vrij at Lazio. Schuurs though would be one for the future.
