Virgil van Dijk made his run-up on Monday evening to the promises of Southampton. The Orange international was injured in January and since then the Orange International did not react. On Monday he played ninety minutes against Aston Villa (4-0 loss) and his race will have imagined his career differently. According to various English media, Van Dijk played an awkward game, the 26-year-old defender had already recovered from his injury, but did not take action because he had submitted a transfer request. The Saints did not want to let him go and Van Dijk was removed from the selection. Now that the transfer market is closed, the man in power has been taken in grace again and in the short term he will also make his livelihood in the main power. Van Dijk formed the defensive duo against Aston Villa together with purchase of Jan Bednarek. According to the Daily Mirror, it was clearly visible that Van Dijk lacked a competitive rhythm and he did not look good at several goals. Nevertheless, for the first time in a long time he played an entire match again and he looks like he’s on his way back.
