There’s no way back for Virgil van Dijk at Southampton, former West Brom exile Peter Odemwingie tells talkSPORT

Peter Odemwingie has told talkSPORT Virgil van Dijk’s stand-off with Southampton has gone too far and that there is no way back for him at the club.

Dutch defender Van Dijk is one of the Premier League’s most in-demand players this season and has been strongly linked with a move to Liverpool.

The 26-year-old is said to be keen on joining the Reds this season and has reportedly handed in a transfer request.

But Southampton are refusing to bow to the player’s wishes and have made the centre-back train on his own, away from the rest of the Saints’ first-team, in the build-up to the new Premier League season.
