Ronald Koeman stated, "For both Frenkie and Virgil it is better for them to leave the training camp at this moment. That decision was taken on medical grounds, with of course the interest of the players coming first." This highlights the team's focus on the wellbeing of its players, prioritizing their long-term health over immediate match needs.
Despite their release from the squad, Van Dijk has been a key player for Liverpool, having played every minute of the Premier League season, significantly contributing to their five-point lead at the top of the table.
