Liverpool’s captain Virgil van Dijk has stressed the need for more attacking options in the squad.
His comments come after the team’s recent defeat in the FA Community Shield against Crystal Palace and the departures of Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz.
The club sold Nunez to Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal for £46.3m and Diaz to Bayern Munich for £65.5m, including add-ons.
The club also lost Diogo Jota, who passed away in a car accident.
I think there’s always room for an attacker, savs VVD
After Liverpool’s 3-2 shootout defeat in the Community Shield, Van Dijk was asked about the club’s attacking options.
He questioned, “Do we?” and pointed out that they had lost both Darwin and Lucho (Luis Diaz) to Al-Hilal and Bayern Munich respectively.
