Liverpool 'plotting moves for Feyenoord duo ahead of Arne Slot arrival'
The Reds are set to bid farewell to Jurgen Klopp at the end of the current campaign, with Arne Slot being widely reported to succeed the German as the next manager at Anfield.
During Klopp's tenure in Merseyside, Liverpool secured six major trophies, including winning their first domestic title in 30 years in the 2019-20 season.
Slot, on the other hand, has never coached a professional team outside the Netherlands but has won the Eredivisie and Dutch Cup with Feyenoord.

The report adds that the Reds have been monitoring both players for some time, even predating the speculation surrounding Slot's move to the club.
Geertruida made his professional debut during the 2017-18 season and is now just four matches shy of reaching 200 appearances for the Eredivisie outfit. He has spent his entire professional career at Feyenoord up to this point.
Primarily recognised as a right back, one of Geertruida's notable attributes is his versatility. Standing at 6'1", he is equally adept at performing in various positions, including centre-half, left-back, or even in the holding midfield role.
The rumours linking Geertruida to the Reds initially surfaced last month when he was seen attending Liverpool's 2-2 draw against West Ham United at the London Stadium.
