Liverpool manager Virgil van Dijk explained his decision to continue his career with the Dutch national team after Xavi was appointed head coach of the team.

According to the words of the 35-year-old football player, when you talk to your mentor, you realize the need for trust and respect. This itself became one of the key factors that influenced his decision to leave the national team.

" I needed a sense of joy, and also, most importantly, joy—that’s all I wanted..

I realized this from the very first second, that Dovga Rozmov was not needed. Ale Rozmova became a miracle.

I'm impatiently checking for zustrich. Let’s do it in such a way that the closest two fates become sad,” said van Dyck.

In this manner, the confirmed champion will continue to play for the Netherlands under the care of the new coaching staff. According to The Athletic, the team-up with Xavi itself helped Van Dijk to sign up for the national team..
