Just in: Liverpool face competition from two Premier League rivals for potential £34m transfer
West Ham United and Crystal Palace are reportedly rivaling Liverpool for the Torino defender Perr Schuurs transfer this summer.
According to a report from the Italian publication Tuttosport, Liverpool had been interested in signing Schuurs, but West Ham and Palace have since expressed a similar interest.
It would be fascinating to watch how this plays out because Schuurs may be a good choice for most Premier League clubs, according to Tuttosport, who also noted that Torino would prefer to receive roughly £34 million for letting the Netherlands Under-21 international leave this summer.
Liverpool could do with cover in defence as they lack depth behind ageing stars like Virgil van Dijk and Joel Matip, while Joe Gomez has had trouble with both fitness and form.

Schuurs could well be a decent fit for LFC, but that asking price might be viewed as a little steep, while clubs like West Ham and Palace might also be more willing to make him a regular starter.
If Schuurs does move this summer, he could do worse than join a team like West Ham or Palace as something of a stepping stone before perhaps securing a bigger move later if he manages to impress in London
