I think it was more that they already had VVD in that position so chose to prioritise funds elsewhere for now. I don’t think it was because they didn’t rate VDV.Carragher (paraphrasing) said Liverpool scouted him but weren't fully convinced.
I can't find anything on the internet to support that though, it looks like the scout did recommend him but Spurs moved faster to close the deal (remember Tapsoba was first choice but didn't lead anywhere so they moved onto the next option).
