Juventus are ready to submit a bid of £150m for Liverpool defender Virgil Van Dijk in the summer transfer window, MySportDab reports.
According to The Sun, Juve believe the Dutchman would be ready for a new challenge should Liverpool go on to win the Premier League title this season.
The Serie A club are also now prepared to make the world’s most expensive defender once again with a shocking £150m bid.
Since his transfer to Anfield, Van Dijk has helped Liverpool win the Champions League, Super Cup and the Club World Cup.
The 28-year-old was also the Ballon D’Or runner-up to Lionel Messi in 2019 and was named Premier League Player of the Year and PFA Players’ Player of the year for the 2018/19 season.
MySportDab understands A source from Juventus told The Sun: ‘After winning many trophies with Liverpool, Juventus believe he would be ready for a new challenge at the end of the season, since he’s been playing in the UK for a few years.’
‘And the club are now planning to make a huge bid for him in the summer.’
The Holland defender led his country to second place in the Nations League and is now set for the Euros.
Virgil Van Dijk last week admitted: ‘I am 28 now and I want to fulfil every dream.
‘Life can be very short. Your career can turnout short as well.
‘I’m enjoying playing with this manager and this team. We can’t look too far. But right now, I’m enjoying everything here.’
Virgil Van Dijk became the world’s most expensive defender when he joined Liverpool from Southampton in the January of 2018.
However, Harry Maguire replaced him as the world’s most expensive defender after signing for Manchester United from Leicester City.
