New Delhi, May 12, 2021: Liverpool and Netherlands defender Virgil van Dijk has said he has made the difficult decision to skip next month’s European Championship in a bid to fully recover from his season-ending knee injury according to the reports published in timesofindia.indiatimes.com.
“With everything that is going on, I feel physically it is the right decision that I’ve decided not to go to the Euros and to go into my last phase of rehab during the off-season,” the Dutch defender told the Liverpool website.
“Obviously I am very gutted to miss the Euros, to miss the European Championship and leading out my own country there, but things have been like they have and I have to accept it.”
