Mauricio Pellegrino ‘can’t control’ Virgil van Dijk future at Southampton
Show/hide article…
Mauricio Pellegrino was unable to guarantee Virgil van Dijk will stay at Southampton after leaving the Netherlands defender on the substitutes’ bench for Saturday’s 1-0 loss at Chelsea.
Marcos Alonso’s free kick was decisive as Saints’ winless run was extended to five games to keep them in a congested lower half of the Premier League table.
Van Dijk was one of six changes to the line-up which had begun the midweek mauling by Leicester and his omission at Stamford Bridge sparked suggestions of a January departure.
Pellegrino insisted the former Celtic defender remained a key member of the squad after he started the previous 11 games, but would not rule out a move when the winter transfer window opens next month.
"Virgil is an important player,’’ Pellegrino said. "I can’t control the market. I’m not the owner of the player. I can have my opinion and this I have give to the technical director, to the chairman, my opinion. After the board can decide altogether which is the best for the team.’’
Saints insisted last summer Van Dijk would not be sold despite a dalliance with Liverpool, while Manchester City and Chelsea have also been linked with a bid in the region of £70 million.
Asked if Saints’ resolve remained, Pellegrino added: "I can’t control this. I will recommend to try to keep our best player here in the club. The club was clear in the beginning and I have the same opinion.’’
Chelsea boss Antonio Conte expressed his admiration for Van Dijk afterwards and said: "He’s a really good player. He had a bad [knee] injury, but I think he recovered very well. I wish him the best.’’

Chelsea transfer news: Antonio Conte drops huge Virgil van Dijk hint after Southampton win
Show/hide article…
Chelsea beat Southampton 1-0 at Stamford Bridge yesterday, with Van Dijk left on the Saints’ bench.
The Dutchman’s absence once again raised questions over his future at St Mary’s, having been heavily linked with a move away over the summer.
Chelsea have been linked with a move for the former Celtic man as the January window approaches, with reports suggesting David Luiz is on his way out.
And Conte did little to play down the rumours.
When asked about Van Dijk, Conte said: ”He’s a really good player. He had a bad (knee) injury, but I think he recovered very well. I wish him the best.”

Pellegrino seeks van Dijk stay
Show/hide article…
Mauricio Pellegrino will recommend to the Saints board that they resist any offers for Virgil van Dijk in January despite dropping him for the 1-0 defeat at Chelsea.
In the aftermath of the humbling against Leicester last week, Pellegrino said he would only pick players who were ‘committed 100 per cent’ to the club.
He made six changes for the trip to Stamford Bridge, including leaving out van Dijk, over whom there is already much speculation with the January transfer window just days away.
However, Pellegrino put his changes down to the rigours of playing three games in the space of a week, rather than purely dropping those he viewed as having a lack of commitment.
“We played three games in six days and it’s really difficult to keep the same condition when from Wednesday night to Saturday it is less than three days to recover and I have enough squad with not too much difference between them,” said Pellegrino.
“Most of them have showed they can compete and this is good thinking about the future.”
When asked whether he could confirm the changes were all down to rotation rather than commitment issues, he replied: “It is one thing in the same hand with other.
“I will repeat that the players are not machines and sometimes they have got ups and downs like you, like me, like everybody in this room. One day we are 100 per cent and then not in the best day.
“For this reason I put fresh people to regenerate the energy in the team and we compete well until the end.
“Physically we were ok, except Ryan who was one of the only players that repeat 90 minutes in three games.”
He added: “Sorry, but I repeat I change Dusan Tadic, I change Sofiane, I change van Dijk, Charlie Austin – a lot of players.
“Every single game when we have got many games in a row I change players and van Dijk is one of the players.”
Saints went down to a Marcos Alonso free kick in first half stoppage time at Chelsea, but in truth aside from a couple of second half openings for sub Charlie Austin they struggled to make an impact on a Blues side who were far from their best.
The major talking point after the game was Pellegrino’s decision to bench van Dijk, and how it might affect his future, given he was so keen to leave in the summer and a number of suitors are being linked again.
“Obviously Virgil is an important player and always it depends on how they are, the energy they have got in every training session. A lot of things make an important player.
“I will repeat that I can’t control the market and I am not the owner of the player.
“I can have my opinion, and I can give to the technical director and the chairman my opinion, but then after the board can decide all together which is the best for the team.”
Pellegrino made clear his desire for van Dijk to stay at the club as he said: “I will recommend to try and keep our best players here in the club.
“The club was clear at the beginning and I have the same opinion.”

Virgil van Dijk: Man Utd join Liverpool, Man City and Barcelona in January hunt - report
Show/hide article…
Southampton’s star defender is still looking to leave St Mary’s.
The Dutchman was keen to secure a transfer Liverpool in the summer.
But a move failed to materialise after the Reds were accused by Southampton of tapping up Van Dijk.
Chelsea and Manchester City were also credited with interest earlier this year.
And now, Manchester United appear ready to outline their own desire to sign Van Dijk.
According to Spanish outlet Don Balon, United could bid for the 26-year-old in January.
Van Dijk was considered one of the best central defenders in the Premier League last term until his campaign was cut short early in January by injury.
