Central defender of Southampton Virgil van Dyke intends to change club registration this summer, said the manager of Saints Mauricio Pellegrino.
At the same time Pelegrino claims that Southampton is not going to sell the 26-year-old Dutchman.
"I have a wonderful relationship with Virgil. From the very first day I was frank with him. The position of the club was also very clear. The club informed me that they will not sell Virgil, "Pellegrino said..
"Now he does not train with the team, because psychologically he is not ready for 100%, but I need to work with those players who are 100% ready to act in the interests of Southampton".
"Virgil said he can not play because he wants to leave the club. I answered: "If you do not want to play, because you do not feel normal, then train alone until this period of time passes". I repeat, the club said that it will not go away ".
The favorite for signing van Dyke was Liverpool, but the Merseyside club publicly stated that they had lost interest in the player.
