Since the midfielder’s first-team call up in the 2015/2016 season, he has played 118 matches for the Ajax senior side scoring 28 goals and providing 23 assists while making 10 appearances for Netherlands national team as well.
Donny van de Beek can play in multiple positions across the midfield but is more comfortable as a pure central midfielder enabling him to roam free and create chances.
Van de Beek would fit perfectly into a team like Liverpool, Chelsea, or Manchester United, where they have some quick forwards giving options for key passes in the final third. It would be the perfect time for a team like Liverpool to pounce as Oxlade-Chamberlain continues to get injured at important periods.
Milner looks to give the Reds one or two more seasons, while Keita is also unpredictable when it comes to injuries. It is also believed that
is on his way out with Liverpool awaiting an offer in the region of £20 million.
Van de Beek is young and can give Liverpool another 10 years. Under the guidance of Jurgen Klopp, he will surely shine in the Premier League.
