De Ligt has been strongly linked with a move away from Amsterdam this summer, with Barcelona and Juventus reportedly very keen on the Netherlands international.But Van der Kraan insists the youngster would be the perfect signing for a Premier League club, saying whoever he joins will be getting another Virgil van Dijk.Speaking on Wednesdays Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, he said: We think Barcelona will be knocking on the door again next week to finish another transfer. They like him. They like him a lot.Juventus have already tried to get him. The player has actually been surprised that none of the big Premier League clubs have knocked on the door with similar offers.I think Matthijs de Ligt is absolutely made for English football.He is an absolute force, hes physically stronger than anybody in that Ajax team and the attacking power he has at corners and set pieces the way he headed in that second goal which helped Ajax into the semi-final, it was phenomenal.You have another Van Dijk coming to the Premier League if you get Matthijs de Ligt.
