Virgil van Dijk emphatically steered a departure from Southampton this summer. However, the defender did not get his way and is currently still under contract with the Saints. According to Stan Collymore, it will be difficult for the Dutchman to return to Southampton,”Just like Alexis Sánchez and Philippe Coutinho, he did not get his desired departure. Of the three, Van Dijk will find it most difficult to return to his club,”writes the former rush hour of Crystal Palace, Liverpool and Aston Villa in his column for the Daily Mirror, among others. I don’t think that teammates like Steven Davis accept this kind of action:”The band is already so disturbed that I don’t see Van Dijk coming back to Southampton in the long term,” Collymore continues:”It wouldn’t come as a surprise if, in the coming weeks, it was decided that Van Dijk would be allowed to leave at Southampton in January. Sometimes you can’t make anything other than a decision in football,”Do you see Virgil van Dijk playing another match for Southampton? Do you see Virgil van Dijk playing another match for Southampton?
