According to the latest reports emerging from the Netherlands, PSV are willing to ‘go far’ and make Van Den Berg their big summer signing, even if they have to sell a couple of players first.

PSV are ready to submit a proposal worth €16m (£13m). If that fails then it is not out of the question that PSV will come back in with
