Juventus eyeing an incredible £150M world-record move for Virgil van Dijk in summer 2020

Having bolstering their attack by signing Cristiano Ronaldo to Turin last season, the Serie A giant has identified Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk the perfect man who can help them win the Champions League. Previously they also signed the young Matthijs de Ligt to replace the club legend Giorgio Chiellini.

Now that Leonardo Bonucci is also growing old, the Italian football giant wants to toughen their defence by signing the world’s current best defender. Virgil van Dijk joined Liverpool from Southampton for £75m in January 2018.

SunSport claims that Van Dijk who is now 28 may be open to a move abroad in the coming season after winning a bunch of trophies in Liverpool including the Champions League, Fifa Club World Cup and Uefa Super Cup.

A Juve source said: “After winning a bagful of trophies with Liverpool, Juventus think he may be ready for a new challenge at the end of the season — especially as he’s been playing in the UK for a few years.

“And the club are actively planning to make a huge bid for him in the summer.”

The Netherland’s skipper has led his country to second place in the Nations League and was also the Ballon d’Or runner-up to Lionel Messi who won it. He is also won 2018/19 UEFA Men’s Player of the Year, UCL Defender of the Season and found a spot in the UEFA’s Team Of The Year 2019.

With such honour and his excellent performance in bag, Juve needs to spend a lot to get the defender. Van Dijk is the key in Liverpool’s defence and has conceded just 15 Premier League goals in 25 games this season.

Van Dijk also last week even admitted, “I’m 28 now and I want to fulfil every dream I ever had. Life can be short. Your career can be short as well.”

“I’m enjoying playing with this team and this manager. We can’t look too far ahead. But right now, I’m enjoying it.”

It seems now that Juventus is prepared to top the massive £142m fee that Barcelona cashed out for Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho two years ago. If Juventus seals the deal for a record fee of £150M then this will be the costliest transfer for any defender in the history of football.
