Netherlands squad give heroes welcome to Champions League winners Vigril Van Dijk and Gini Wijnaldum
The season is not quite over yet and Virgil Van Dijk and Gini Wijnaldum were both given a fantastic reception when they joined up with the Netherlands squad ahead of their Nations League semi-final with England this week.
Both Van Dijk and Wijnaldum played key parts in Liverpool’s Champions League success, Wijnaldum scored twice in the remarkable 4-0 win over Barcelona in the semi-final second leg, and VVD was a colossus in defence throughout the tournament.
The Dutch squad will be hoping both players are fit enough to start in their match against England on Thursday and the welcome they got when arriving at the team hotel was brilliant.
