'I’m lying if I say it’s not interesting' - Botman flattered by Liverpool links as Lille star admits the Premier League 'is something special'

The Dutchman says he will make a final decision on his future at the end of the season amid rumours the Reds are poised to swoop for his services

Lille star Sven Botman has admitted he's flattered by rumours linking him with Liverpool and says that the Premier League is "something special".

Botman is attracting plenty of attention from top clubs heading towards the summer transfer window, having played a key role in Lille's tilt at the Ligue 1 title in 2020-21.

Liverpool reportedly tried to sign the 21-year-old in January amid a defensive injury crisis, and have been tipped to reignite their interest when the market reopens, with the Dutchman keeping his options open despite still having four years let to run on his current contract.
