Real Madrid's Response to Van Dijk's Agent, Offered to Come: What...

Looking ahead to the next season, a series of important names have been considered for the major defensive addition to the club. In this regard, one of the most important names that has been on the club's negotiation table is Virgil van Dijk. The Liverpool center-back has been offered to the white team by his agent and they have received a strong response.

"It's not what we're looking for," was the club's immediate response to the possibility of signing this player. It is logical to think that, being such a renowned footballer, it might be a somewhat misguided decision. However, at 33 years old and a considerable drop in performance in recent months, prove otherwise.

Right now, Real Madrid's project, looking ahead to the coming years, is much more aligned with a structure with younger footballers. Something they have been able to exploit over the last few years and that will definitely continue to be the case.

They Have Rejected Him Immediately

This player has been one of the most important pieces for Liverpool throughout his time there since his arrival in 2018. This season he has played more than 3,800 minutes in 42 matches where he has been essential in the defensive scheme.

However, being 33 years old, the player's drop in performance has begun and with much more force. We will probably have a version of the Dutchman next year very different from what we can see today.

While his arrival completely free this summer, since his contract with Liverpool ends, would have been a good option. Especially considering that there are other interesting names like Dean Huijsen.

The Management Is Clear

This option would not have been rejected if it weren't for the fact that the management is quite clear that this is the ideal option for the team. Moreover, it must be taken into account that, with the plans already structured by the management and the coaching staff, there is no turning back.
