Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk may be a key figure in one of the summer’s most talked-about transfers in the Turkish Super Lig. Insider Arda Özkurt has reported that the Dutch defender has expressed his willingness to join Galatasaray, a move that has sent ripples through Istanbul’s football community.
However, a significant condition accompanies this potential transfer. Van Dijk has indicated that he would only make the move to “the Lions” if Liverpool permits him to leave on a free transfer.
This season, the 32-year-old Netherlands international has made 54 appearances for Liverpool across all competitions, scoring 8 goals and providing 3 assists. His current market value, according to Transfermarkt, stands at €18 million.
