Liverpool captain, Virgil van Dijk has backed new manager Arne Slot to ‘make a big success’ at the club after replacing Jurgen Klopp.
Slot has been appointed as the Reds’ new head coach following Klopp’s departure this summer.
Speaking about Slot, Van Dijk said on Monday as the Netherlands began their training camp for the European Championship:
“I still have a year left on my contract. I am club captain and I have made it clear I am there for the new coach [Slot] and enthusiastic over the next season.
“Obviously, there will be a lot of changes but I am confident we will make a big success of it.
“I congratulated him of course and I’m really pleased for him and his family. We spoke about the team and the future, but now my focus is fully on the national team,” he added.
