Additionally, Erik ten Hag’s side also had the idea to sign Berge from Burnley.

Berge is set to be the fourth signing for Marco Silva this summer alongside Ryan Sessegnon, Jorge Cuenca and Emile Smith Rowe.

He is expected to help fill the void left by João Palhinha who departed for Bayern Munich.
