Virgil van Dijk (33) signed a working paper by 2027. The Dutchman is one of the ten mostly captured central defenders in LFC history. In the Premier League, only three players were used for the Reds in the defense center.<\/p>\n<p>          <\/p>\n<p>Although the decision to extend at Van Dijk for a few months now, the player has now explained that he always strived to stay at the traditional club: &#8220;It was always a Liverpool. It was always in my head, it was always in my head. I had no doubt that this was the right place for me and my family. I was part of Liverpool. I am really proud to hear something like that, I feel a great feeling. &#8220;<\/p>\n<p>    <\/p>\n<p>In January 2018, van Dijk came to Liverpool for almost 85 million euros from Southampton and is one of the most expensive purchases in club history. There were only two more expensive winter transfers in football history worldwide. Van Dijk has played 314 competitive games since then-270 under ex-coach J\u00fcrgen Klopp, 44 under his successor Arne Slot. With Klopp, van Dijk won the Champions League, the championship title and the FA Cup. With slot, the Reds are about to climb the Premier League throne.<\/p>\n<p>    <\/p>\n<p>With the upcoming title, which could already be made perfect on the Easter weekend, Liverpool would re -draw with Manchester United after the number of championships and at least get the rank back as record champions. The Red Devils had made the arch-rival this predicate in the 2000s. With this year&#8217;s success of Liverpool, both teams will have collected 20 championship titles from now on. Arsenal follows at 13, Manchester City collected ten. Last weekend van Dijk himself ensured that the head start to pursuer Arsenal grew to 13 points (to the Premier League table) with his 2-1 win against West Ham United.<\/p>\n<p>                                                                                                                                                                                                 <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After Salah&#8217;s extension \u00a9IMAGO According to Mohamed Salah (32), FC Liverpool has bound another&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9373,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9372","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bundesliga-transfers"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.3.1 -
