Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk might be tempted by a summer outing to Real Madrid.
Ahead of a summer of changes at Anfield, their first-team squad is set to be reshuffled in the coming months, with changes expected throughout.
As Jurgen Klopp moves towards the exit door, the focus will be on his replacement, and new signings in the club.
Despite van Dijk's enduring role at Liverpool, there is a real sense of change in the air following Klopp's exit, with the Dutchman's Liverpool contract expiring in 2025.
That could trigger a possible change in the club, and even a figure like van Dijk could be considered for an exit, if the terms are correct.
Former Liverpool captain Graeme Souness has offered his take on the situation, and hinted that an exit is not out of the question as the picture at Anfield continues to evolve in the coming weeks.
“I am worried that Virgil van Dijk's contract is about to expire. In July he turns 33 and if his agent called the sports director of Real Madrid, they would take him away, as quotes from AS Diary.
