Virgil van Dijk to Liverpool: Reds END interest in defender and apologise to Southampton
Yesterday it emerged that Southampton were set to contact the Premier League and accuse Liverpool of tapping Van Dijk up.
Liverpool had been interested in making Van Dijk the world’s most expensive defender in a £60million deal.
But they have now pulled the plug and instead issue an apology to Southampton.
“Liverpool Football Club would like to put on record our regret over recent media speculation regarding Southampton Football Club and player transfers between the two clubs,” the statement read.
“We apologise to the owner, board of directors and fans of Southampton for any misunderstanding regarding Virgil van Dijk.
“We respect Southampton’s position and can confirm we have ended any interest in the player.”
