On July 13th, Tuttosport reported Crystal Palace are ready to overcome competition from Liverpool for Perr Schuurs after Roy Hodgson ‘expressly indicated’ the Eagles to sign the Torino star.
It was also stated the London club have already made an offer for the centre-back and are ahead of the Reds in the transfer race.
Liverpool won’t let go of him and are still in the picture, along with Crystal Palace. That’s according to Toro.it, who say the Premier League duo ‘do not give up’ in their chase for the defender.
The 23-year-old has a contract until 2026, with an option to extend it for another year. According to the report, Torino chairman Urbano Cairo has set a €40m asking price, which is why the negotiations with both Liverpool and Crystal Palace ‘has frozen’.
Schuurs is aware of the interest he has from the two English clubs and is ‘not sure’ if he’ll stay at Torino beyond this window.
This would give hope to Liverpool and Crystal Palace, who are ‘vigilant’ of his situation.
