Amsterdam –
Virgil van Dijk continues to pay attention to Liverpool even though he cannot play. He cheered on his teammates before the game against Ajax.

Liverpool midfielder Giorginio Wijnaldum revealed that Van Dijk had sent a message of support on the WhatsApp group ahead of the Ajax game. However, for now Wijnaldum does not want to talk too much about football with his compatriot.
“Virgil sends a message, wishes us luck in the WhatsApp group, wishes everyone the best,” Wijnaldum said as reported by Wijnaldum. Mirror.
“But for me, I don’t think this is the right time to talk about football with Virtil, because football is not the most important thing at the moment,” continues the Dutch midfielder.
“I think for him and me, when we talk together, the most important thing is his recovery and stuff. So when I talk to him, it’s more about life than football.”
“It may change in a few months because afterwards he will have a long recovery and will be able to talk about the game. But it is definitely not the right time to talk about football with Virgil,” he said.
