The news surprised everyone yesterday, Liverpool will be orphaned by their coach Jurgen Klopp. His Mancunian counterpart, Pep Guardiola, paid tribute to him. But none of his players had yet intervened. It was his captain, Virgil Van Dijk (32), who was the first to intervene on this decision: “ It’s difficult to accept, because the manager means a lot to us, to me, to the club, to the whole Premier League, I think, explained the Dutch defender on the club website. But he made the decision for himself and his family. »
The Dutch defender wants to make his last season a special one: “We still have a lot of goals to achieve this year and why not finish the season in style and celebrating the boss,” added Van Dijk, while Liverpool still in the race on four fronts, at the top of the Premier League, in League Cup final, Champions League and FA Cup. This is huge news… Maybe it will give us an extra boost. (…) Let’s make the rest of the season special so he can have the farewell he truly deserves. »
