By now, we know that the Merseysiders have been seriously interested in signing Virgil van Dijk from the Saints and the Dutch defender is going to be in the lime light in the final days of the summer transfer window.
Multiple reports in the British media have suggested that the Reds are prepared to sign the former Celtic defender before the deadline ends on Thursday.

Moreover, the Sun have exclusively revealed that Liverpool are set to shell out a huge amount of 75 million pounds ($97million) for the Southampton star.
The Saints do want to keep Virgil but he has not played for the club so far this season and it will not come as any surprise if he leaves the St. Mary’s to join Liverpool. We shall see how the transfer saga unfolds.
