According to the Mirror, the self acclaimed “special one” is looking to secure the services of the 25-year old Dutch player.

Virjil van Dijk moved to the Premier league outfit Southampton from Celtic last year and has a contract running till 2022, having signed a 6-year contract in May, a reward for a form that has seen the Saints fans take a liking to him in such a short period of time.

It is claimed that the Red Devils will have to fork out about £30m to secure his services.

It was also reported by Starsport that Klopp is looking to secure the defenders signature in the upcoming transfer window to bolster his defence for the second half of the English Premier League.
