  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    The Liverpool centre-back was taken aback when a journalist asked him whether he would stay at Anfield beyond this season. "What a direct question," Van Dijk replied. The journalist wasn't done though, quickly following up by telling the 33-year-old that Real Madrid are looking for defenders owing to injuries to Eder Militao and David Alaba.

    WHAT VAN DIJK SAID

    "Are they? Really? But they have [Antonio] Rudiger there," Van Dijk replied.

    "As I already said, my full focus is on the next game against Man City and that’s it."

  • THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Van Dijk has been allowed to enter the final 12 months of his Liverpool deal but according to the Reds' ex-CEO Peter Moore, the club is "working feverishly" to get an extension done. Losing the Dutch international would be a big blow to Arne Slot given his talent and experience, providing the steel in defence that helped yield Premier League and Champions League success under Jurgen Klopp.
