Transfer News: Arsenal have met Virgil van Dijk claim: Odds on Southampton ace next move

Liverpool were forced to apologise to Southampton earlier this summer for tapping up Van Dijk.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is also interested in the Holland international as he bids to bolster his squad.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola remains in the market for a centre-back and has been linked with Van Dijk.

And today it was claimed that Arsenal have held talks with the 26-year-old and his representatives about a move. 

“#AFC have met with Van Dijk & his reps but I’m fairly sure all the big PL clubs have. I guess Saints would rather sell to us than Liverpool”, tweeted James Dodd, producer for Fox Sports News.

Van Dijk has handed in a transfer request at Southampton and explained in a statement why he wants to leave.

Saints remain insistent that their captain will not be sold before the 11pm transfer deadline next Thursday August 31.

But with Van Dijk yet to play for Southampton this season and training with the youth teams – will he get his move?

SkyBet price Van Dijk at 5/6 to STAY at Southampton after the summer transfer window.

Liverpool are the favourites at 6/4 with William Hill to land Van Dijk, with Chelsea next in line at 10/1 with SkyBet.

Bet Victor have the best price for Arsene Wenger to sign Van Dijk for Arsenal at 16/1, with Manchester City at 25/1.

Bet Victor also have him at 25/1 to join any French, German, Italian or Spanish club.
