Liverpool centre-half Virgil van Dijk does not want to discuss what was said between himself and then-Newcastle United forward Alexander Isak after the 2025 Carabao Cup Final. The two players were seen to exchange words shortly after the final whistle, in which Isak scored what proved to be the winning goal for the Magpies. Some supporters have speculated the Liverpool skipper mentioned something about a summer move to Anfield given the nature of this past summer's long-running transfer saga.
Man, I can't believe it, I don't wanna believe it. Absolutely devastated and in total disbelief. What a human being, what a player, but most importantly what an unbelievable family man.
Van Dijk's long-range strike against Malta showcases his attacking capabilities, a rare event for a defender, and echoes the quality of Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard.
