Galatasaray are reportedly accelerating their plans to sign Virgil van Dijk this summer, with claims being made that the skipper wants to leave the club. Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson are set to leave the club in the summer transfer window, and losing van Dijk at the same time would be a dangerous situation.

For his part, van Dijk is reportedly ‘planning to leave Liverpool’ despite signing a £400,000 per week contract just last season. Liverpool would be fools to let van Dijk leave This report is worth taking with a pinch of salt.

Even though my faith in the decision makers at Anfield has diminished this season, it seems a stretch of the imagination that they would let van Dijk leave the club when they are getting ready to let Mo Salah leave for free. Liverpool have been rudderless this season (largely in part to Arne Slot’s lack of inspiration as the club’s leader), but should van Dijk leave, it would be very worrying indeed.
