The winners of the Champions League, Liverpool, are among those recently connected. Agent Mino Raiola would obviously be eager for him to move to Anfield or Juventus.

"His great quality is that he is only 19 years old and sometimes has the experience of a 25 year old player.

"He's a great professional, really smart. He can improve, of course – and he'll be better. I hope that he will be able to choose a great club because he deserves it.

"I talked to Matthijs about his future and what [his next club] is secret. The most important thing is to keep playing and to gain a few minutes to develop your football.

"The way a club plays is also an important decision in your choice."
