Liverpool fans are in a state of disbelief following the post that Virgil van Dijk made on his official social media account.
Liverpool rallied from a 1-0 deficit to defeat Southampton 3-1 at Anfield on Saturday afternoon, with Van Dijk serving as the captain.
Liverpool currently leads the Premier League table by 15 points as a consequence of Arsenal’s 1-1 draw with Manchester United on Sunday.
Nevertheless, Liverpool fans remain concerned about off-the-field matters, despite the positive results on the pitch.
Currently, Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Van Dijk are expected to depart Anfield for free upon the expiration of their contracts at the conclusion of the season.
Van Dijk’s most recent social media post on Monday morning caused Liverpool fans to lose their collective minds.
Virgil van Dijk’s most recent social media post has elicited a flurry of excitement among Liverpool fans.
The Dutchman announced a partnership with Willem II on Instagram, writing in bold, “It’s official.”
He composed the following: “It is now official.” I am delighted to inform you that the international youth tournament will be returning this September, in collaboration with Willem II.
“Tilburg will host the inaugural ‘Virgil’s Legacy Trophy’ U13s tournament, featuring the most prominent clubs in the world.” I am passionate about motivating others and am committed to providing the next generation of players with an appropriate platform to excel. The most exceptional officials, facilities, and pitches.
It is safe to assume that a few Liverpool fans believed it could have been something else.
A fan expressed their confusion, stating, “I believed it was a contract extension.”
Another individual expressed, “Please refrain from manipulating my emotions in that manner.” Next, please execute the contract.
A third fan commented, “You had me in the first half.”
Another individual composed the following statement: “You are aware of your actions, Skip.”
A fifth individual indicated: “Saw its official and thought it was a new contract announcement.”
What statements has Virgil van Dijk made regarding his Liverpool contract?
Van Dijk stated last month that he was unable to discuss personal conversations that had been ongoing for an extended period of time when asked about his future. I can only confirm that I am entirely dedicated to the organisation. I have a deep affection for the club and its supporters. I have already had an extraordinary experience.
“Let us observe what the future holds.” However, I believe that the world can remain composed as long as I remain composed. The information will likely be disclosed once a definitive response regarding my future has been obtained. Afterward, all individuals will be informed. I am composed regarding the matter.
In the second leg of their Champions League last 16 match against Paris Saint Germain, Liverpool and Van Dijk will return to action on Tuesday night at Anfield.
