Van Dijk remembers competition against Ajax:’ The atmosphere was extraterrestrial’.

Between 2013 and 2015 Virgil van Dijk wore the shirt of Celtic before he left for Southampton. The defender still keeps warm memories of his time in Scotland. Van Dijk is still impressed by the atmosphere at Celtic Park, especially when the Hoops have to take office in a European context.

You can’t describe it. Especially during European competitions, the atmosphere is extraterrestrial. In my first season, we played Champions League against Ajax, Barcelona and AC Milan. The atmosphere during those matches was indescribable “, Van Dijk is quoted by various English media,” Sometimes you don’t hear on the field that the audience makes noise, but at Celtic Park it’s different “.

As a player it gives you wings, I got goosebumps. You look around you and think: this is incredible,” continues Southampton’s defender. He applauds the idea of admitting Celtic to the Premier League,”It would be nice if they were admitted to the Premier League, perhaps it will come in the future. I enjoyed my time at Celtic a lot, it was very special.

Does Virgil van Dijk still play next season at Southampton?
