West Ham and Crystal Palace keen on Torino defender Perr Schuurs

West Ham and Crystal Palace have expressed an interest in Torino centre-back Perr Schuurs.

The 23-year-old Dutchman is being watched by a number of clubs — including Liverpool — but Standard Sport understands no official bid for him has been made at this stage.

Torino signed Schuurs from Ajax for £8million last summer. His contract in Turin runs until 2026 and includes an option for an additional year.

Torino's €40m (£34.2m) valuation of him is seen as an obstacle by a number of suitors, with plenty of interested parties but to date no concrete bids for the former Netherlands Under-21 international.
