GUIMARAES, Portugal: Netherlands coach Ronald Koeman believes 19-year-old Ajax Amsterdam defender Matthijs de Ligt has only scratched the surface of his potential, but deserves a move to a big club.

"His big quality is he’s only 19. It looks like sometimes that he has the experience of a player of 25," added Koeman, whose former club Barcelona is among those most strongly linked with the centre back in media reports. “He will be better in some years. Let’s hope he will choose a big, big club. He deserves that," added the former Everton manager.Koeman said he had talked with the defender about his plans but was tight-lipped about the content of that discussion.

"That’s the most important thing. How the club is playing is also a reason to make a choice. He, his family, his agent and those around the player will make the best decision for the player."
