Report: After submitting a bid, Liverpool was only £8 million away from the ‘aggressive’ target.

With manager Jurgen Klopp dreaming of pairing the Torino star and Virgil van Dijk with his summer transfer, Liverpool have now encountered a significant obstacle in their pursuit of Perr Schuurs.

According to Toro . it, all negotiations between Liverpool and Torino regarding the transfer of Schuurs have come to a halt. This summer, the Serie A team has been negotiating a transfer with Crystal Palace. However, their conversations with the Eagles have also come to a halt at this time.

The clubs with the most interest in luring Schuurs away from the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino are Liverpool and Crystal Palace. However, the 23-year-old cannot leave the club for less than €40 million (£34 million), according to Urbano Cairo, the chairman of Il Toro. His cost has, however, up until now been a problem.

Perr Schuurs is still a target of interest for transfers from Crystal Palace and Liverpool.

For the center-back this summer, no club has yet expressed a desire to pay Cairo the amount he demands. Schuurs now finds himself in an awkward position at the Serie A club after recently telling Torino fans he is unsure of his future with the team beyond this current window.

Crystal Palace and Liverpool are still interested in Schuurs and are keeping an eye out for any potential transfers. The defender has had a productive summer thus far as he sharpens his focus in time for training. The enforcer, who stands 6 feet 3 inches tall, keeps up his tireless work.

As Klopp fantasizes about pairing the Dutchman with his countryman, Van Dijk, at Anfield, Liverpool is still aware of Schuurs’ predicament. The Reds manager is eager to sign a center-half to pair with the former Southampton star. However, Crystal Palace might make him less interested.

The Italian club Torino has already received offers from Liverpool and Crystal Palace.

At the beginning of July, Tuttosport reported that Liverpool had submitted a €30 million (£26 million) offer for the transfer of Schuurs. However, Torino swiftly rejected a bid from Napoli and returned the offer to its sender.
Il Toro, however, always looked forward to receiving more proposals.

The Eagles would also submit an offer. This month, according to Tuttosport, Crystal Palace made a transfer offer of €35 million (£30 million) to Torino. Cairo, however, has stuck to its £34 million ($40 million) price tag. While even Tuttosport reported that Schuurs had decided to join Crystal Palace.

Despite the fact that Schuurs prefers Liverpool, he has a personal contract in place with Crystal Palace in the event that Torino approve a transfer. To acquire a player Michael Owen admires, the Eagles must offer an additional £4 million for a deal and Liverpool an additional £8 million.

Owen told BT Sport (21/10/23, 22:30) that Schuurs “will be the new Matthijs de Ligt.”. Although he is still young, he has a great physique and strength. He already makes me think of De Ligt a lot. Strong for his age, aggressive, and good with the ball. ”.
