Liverpool News: Virgil Van Dijk talks up Matthijs de Ligt move

Liverpool defender Virgil Van Diyk has spoken to Dutch media outlet De Telegraaf about The Reds making a potential move for Ajax starlet Matthijs de Ligt.

The 19-year-old has earned rave reviews since first breaking into the Ajax starting line-up in September 2016. The youngster has gone to make 74-appearances, and has also established himself as a regular part of Ronald Koeman’s national squad.

Van Diyk rates his International team-mate highly, telling the media of his desire to play with de Ligt at club level.

Van Diyk said:

“He will be on the lists, because they have enough scouts at the club.
