Preston North End believe they are in a good position to sign Liverpool's Sepp van den Berg for a third time next season.
The Reds' defender is currently on a season-long loan arrangement at Deepdale, having impressed there in the second half of the 2020-21 campaign. The Dutchman has made 42 appearances for Preston this season and and 58 in total across both spells.
Manager Ryan Lowe, an avid Liverpool supporter, is hoping a deal can be thrashed out to bring van den Berg back to the Championship club for a third time next season. Speaking at a North End fans’ forum event on Monday night, Lowe is quoted as saying: “We’re in talks with Liverpool but it’ll be down to Sepp and what he wants to do. I think he’ll want to find a suitable, permanent home, but I would’ve thought if he was at Liverpool next season and looking to go on loan, we’ll be in a good position.”
