Premier League trio keen on Van Dijk

Southampton defender Virgil van Dijk is reportedly the subject of interest from the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City ahead of this summer's transfer window.

The Netherlands international joined the Saints from Celtic for £13m in 2015, and has since evolved into one of the most consistent defenders in the Premier League.

Van Dijk has always been known for his physical presence in the box, but he has managed to improve his overall game with the ability to push forward being a particular highlight.

According to The Mirror, the Saints could be parting ways with their leading star in the summer with both Liverpool and Arsenal having met up with the player's representatives last week.

Meanwhile, Manchester City are also keeping tabs on the player's status and will approach for the player's signature prior to the next transfer window.

Van Dijk, who is currently nursing an ankle problem, is likely to cost a sum in upwards of £50m with his existing deal due to expire only in the summer of 2021.
