With little to play for over the final few games of the season, Liverpool's focus is now on the Slot era and it appears as though Geertruida is also curious as to what the future holds for the Reds.

Geertruida took to social media to confirm his attendance at London Stadium, where he watched his manager's new side battle to a draw.

Only one player has played more minutes for Slot this season that 23-year-old Geertruida, who is primarily a right-back but is comfortable playing centrally as well and has even popped up on the left side of Feyenoord's defence at times this year.

Liverpool favourite Dirk Kuyt, who spent time as both a player and a youth coach at Feyenoord, urged the Reds to make a move for Geertruida last year.

"I am a Feyenoord man and they are doing very well at the moment," Kuyt told the Liverpool Echo in April 2023. "They have a very good manager in Arne Slot and some of the younger guys like Orkun Kokcu and Lutsharel Geertruida are knocking on the door and playing very well.

"It won’t take long for the interest of top European teams to be there for them. I hope Liverpool is interested in Feyenoord players, and I am an example it can work.

"When I was working as under-19s coach, Kokcu and Geertruida were in my team at the time. You know who the talented players are and you can see they are going to have big futures. [Cody] Gakpo was a great talent and everyone knew from watching him at youth level that he would one day play for a club like Liverpool."
