Spending £2.25 mill on Van Dijk will not take attention away from the Old Bailey trial. The window's shut in 8 days but the news was saying this trial could last 3 weeks.

Don't think so. This has just been posted on the Groningen blog (some of it is re-hashed but think the quotes from the Director are new). Apologies for Google Translate...


It remains unsettled around the person Virgil van Dijk. Brighton did before an attempt to get to England central defender, but FC Groningen bid quickly wiped the table. However, according to the will Brighton zaawaarnemer Van Dijk-soon with an improved discussed. In addition, several clubs interested in the services of Van Dijk. If it is Hans Nijland, remains Virgil van Dijk just at FC Groningen. As you can read in the paper version of the Football Internatonal.

Hans Nijland: "These people (Brighton) have called us fantsoenlijk and indeed a bid. We thank them, but the offer firmly beside us down. We have the manager of Van Dijk immediately announced that it furthermore makes no sense. We let Virgil do not go, or there really something strange happen. A mad bid where the prudential totally irresponsible to say no to say. But I do not expect. Moreover, we are not so strong that we are sporting a key player as Virgil can let go. "

The agent of Van Dijk, Martin Henk Chin, understands this setup, but excludes an interim departure of the 21-year-old Van Dijk not matter: "I think 2.5 to three million pounds (three to 3.6 million euros) a real amount. There are five Premier League clubs that Van Dijk high on their list already. The question is what this week at these clubs going to happen. Going there defenders away? What are their other options? For Virgil is especially important that he plays. But that can also in Groningen, where he also teaches. Its development is more important than the first train that comes. We're peaceful view. "

According to Chin Brighton would be a good club for Van Dijk: "Brighton is not playing in the top, but the chance of playing there for Virgil big. Then he can gradually get used to the level. At his age he should make minutes. His style of play fits with the English league. I'm not crazy combination. "Brigton stands eighth in the Championship and will this year's playoffs and promotion to the Premier League edit set.

We really shouldn't go around insulting people, even if they are Dutch and therefore spit a lot when they talk.

"You, you...BID. And you're a lowdown dirty stinking fantsoenlijk."
