Virgil van Dijk has said that his world-record price tag does not make him “nervous” and he considers Liverpool’s £75 million spend on him to be a “compliment.”
Van Dijk said: “It doesn’t make me nervous, it’s a big compliment to myself for the hard work I’ve put in so far, that Liverpool are willing to pay that much money. I can’t change anything about that.”
When asked why he chose Liverpool, the Netherlands international said: “I think the size of the club, the fans, the players, the manager, the whole package here is amazing.
“You can see yourself that the atmosphere at every home game is amazing. I’m just very happy to play for the club.”
