Van Dijk: Arnold s decision to leave the team makes us feel sad. Summer window believes that management will take the right action

05/12 Van Dijk talked about Arnold's booing by fans for his decision to leave Liverpool.

Talking about Arnold's departure and being booed by fans

Van Dijk: For me, there is no better choice than staying here at this moment. Everyone has a different viewpoint, he feels that he has done everything, and indeed he has done it, and now he wants to try something different. What you are talking about is Real Madrid, one of the greatest clubs in history! His decision has been made. We all feel sad, and so are the players because he is an extraordinary player.

We will miss him after the final whistle, but we still have two games, and a toast and a parade, so we still have a lot of moments to share with and then we will see what happens.

Talking about the upcoming transfer window

Van Dijk: It must make a difference this summer, and I believe that clubs and decision makers will make the right choice. As the defending champion, it is very difficult to maintain the championship status, but with the new players joining, I think we can go a step further. We will have a complete pre-season preparation period, and can practice the ball-handling and off-ball tactics required by the head coach, which requires a lot of effort. It's worth looking forward to, everything is exciting, and the time spent with Liverpool is full of vitality.

Let's wait and see, but I totally trust decision makers to take the right action (laughs) and see what those 'right action' would be. .

Talking about personal opinions on Arnold's decision and his booing experience

Van Dijk: The head coach's statement at the press conference was very accurate, and you cannot control how others feel about his personal and family decisions.

This is the reality reaction. He has to face it, and as a team we need to deal with it together. But I think he might have expected it. We have two more games left, and we will part ways after that, and he will go to a new world.

This is not easy, it is by no means easy. We always support him anyway, but as the head coach said, you can't control how others feel about this decision. He made a choice and accepted it calmly.

This is football. We all understand the rules of running the world, and players sometimes have to make decisions that they think are best for themselves and their families. He chose the path for his future and felt at ease about it.

We need to accept reality, and the clubs need to deal with it. In the past, the club handled this very well. As I said, he will still be involved in the last two games.

I am sure he will play because he is an extraordinary player and we will officially say goodbye.
