Schalke 04 are in talks with Sepp van den Berg's representatives over the possibility of arranging another loan deal for the Liverpool defender.
The 21-year-old, who made the move to Liverpool from PEC Zwolle in 2019, spent the 2022/23 season on loan at the Schalke 04 and, despite being sidelined for most of the campaign with a long-term ankle injury, impressed during his ten appearances even as he and his team-mates suffered relegation from the Bundesliga.
Earlier this week, the defender posted a heartfelt message on Instagram to thank the AufSchalke faithful for the support they showed throughout the campaign and during his injury struggles, admitting it was an "honour" to play for the German outfit. And with Schalke 04 now returning to the 2. Bundesliga just one season after they secured promotion back to Germany's top flight, Van den Berg looked set for a loan spell elsewhere as he bids to continue his development in the professional game away from Anfield.
