Arne Slot has found his next Dean Huijsen in 'incredible' star
Jan Paul Van Hecke is on Liverpool's shortlist again
Jan Paul Van Hecke has been one of Brighton's best defenders this season.
The 25-year-old has solidified his place in Fabian Hurzeler's back line and has quickly become one of the Netherlands' next big talents.
Which, now that Virgil van Dijk is getting into the twilight stages of his career, could be massive for his home country.
These performances seemingly haven't gone unnoticed with Dutch outlet Voetbal International claiming that the centre-back is refusing to sign a new deal with the Seagulls.
"Jan Paul van Hecke (25) is a major candidate to strengthen Liverpool this summer," they wrote.
"Multiple sources confirmed to VI that both parties are in contact."
Jan Paul Van Hecke could be Liverpool's new Dean Huijsen
Even though Van Hecke may be four years older than Huijsen, both players still have a pretty high ceiling.
Liverpool's main goal with transfers over the last couple of years has been to sign young players who are good enough for the first-team but could become even better.
They managed to do this with the likes of Milos Kerkez and last summer and could look to do the same again.
