The players from the Premier League's top 6 sides who could improve their rivals

#4 Liverpool (Jan Vertonghen from Tottenham)

Vertonghen could be the cool and confident partner Van Dijk needs

Jurgen Klopp has built a strong side during his reign at Liverpool. His high-intensity style of play, coupled with his astute signings, has taken Liverpool to the cusp of European glory. While they have improved in attack with signings like Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane, their defense is still an issue that needs addressing. The signing of Virgil Van Dijk has solved half the problem.

The other half of the problem yet lingers and has been taken advantage of several times. Dejan Lovren and Ragnar Klavan have been very prone to mistakes this season, while Joel Matip has struggled to stay fit. Since his team plays at a high tempo, Klopp will want someone who can play quick passes while being stable on the ball.

Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen has been a revelation this season. In the absence of usual partner Toby Alderweireld, Vertonghen has stepped up this season. He has made 60 interceptions compared to Lovren's 42. He hasn't made a single defensive error this season, making him a reliable player at the back. Like a fine wine, he keeps getting better with age.

Vertonghen is also a great passer of the ball. He has made 2090 successful passes this season, at a rate of 58.06 per game. This is just one pass per game less than Kevin De Bruyne! A versatile defender, Vertonghen has played at center back as well as left-back. The Belgian defender's various traits make him the player Klopp and Liverpool are in dire need of!
