“He’s Upset”: Van Dijk’s Reaction to His Possible Signing by Madrid
His explosive words a few days ago made many dream of his move to Real Madrid, but now he is backtracking. Keep an eye on Virgil Van Dijk’s reaction to a possible move to the white team.
For many, it was a genuine surprise, and for others, it was simply confirmation that a new era is coming ahead for Liverpool. After Jürgen Klopp’s announcement about his future, various pillars of the Merseyside team express their opinions about what’s coming in a summer that will change everything at Anfield. This is Virgil Van Dijk’s reaction to his possible signing by Madrid.
The Dutch defender set things on fire a few hours ago with a series of statements that seemed to mark the end of his time at the iconic English football stadium. All of this while the white team is looking at center-backs for the next season, and a series of operations are heating up at Valdebebas. For many, it was a nod.
This is what he said about staying at Anfield: “That’s a big question. I don’t know. The club will have a big job to do, everyone knows that (…) I hope we have the success we all dream of and fight for every day. By then, there will probably be more clarification about what the club wants for the future, and we’ll see.”
Step back “It’s taken way out of context. To be 100% clear, I’m fully committed to the club. I love the club, I love the fans. It’s completely taken out of context. It’s not about me, it’s about us, nothing has changed. Five days ago, we weren’t even talking about my contract, so it’s a bit silly. My full focus is on making sure this year is a very special year,” he said on SKY to make it clear that he’s not leaving Anfield.
In the short term, everything seems to indicate that no one can dream of the Dutchman’s services away from Liverpool. Still, there is a long time ahead to know how the future of each and every one of Jürgen Klopp’s pupils unfolds. Van Dijk, for now, is not thinking in terms of Real Madrid.
