‘Van Dijk would find it hard to turn down Barcelona or Real Madrid’

Liverpool will be concerned about the prospect of losing key defender Virgil van Dijk, according to Paul Ince, who offered a warning to Jurgen Klopp over the spending power of Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The Reds may be European champions, but financially they will not be able to compete with Spanish giants and must ensure that they continue winning trophies in order to keep their star players happy, says the former Liverpool midfielder.

The Premier League title seems set to be on its way to Merseyside this season, with Klopp’s men needing only 15 more points to secure it, but in order to prove themselves as one of the all-time greats, this squad need to maintain a flow of success.
