Antonio Conte's Premier League leaders have made the Southampton and Holland defender their No1 priority this summer and are ready to break the bank to get him. The West London Blues are supremely confident they will get him ahead of City, Everton and Liverpool, who have all been in for the former Celtic centre-half. The interest from the Etihad became such an open secret that Van Dijk's Saints team-mates bought him a Man City shirt as a joke in a Secret Santa wind-up last December.

The Liverpool legend feels it is about time Everton won at Anfield seeing as they have failed to do so since September 1999. "All the stats show it's 18 years since Everton won at Anfield in the Premier League but I don't like that, it worries me," Thompson told Sky Sports. "But Liverpool will also miss Adam Lallana - both players so are vital to each team's style of play. Even though he's not committed his future to Everton yet he's still seems to have the support of the fans.

However, Klopp does believe the planning behind England's friendly with Germany, which came just 72 hours after Liverpool's game with Manchester City, made "no sense". "It's hard for us to lose a player like Adam for four weeks, which could be eight games - it's a lot," Klopp told Sky Sports. So you can't have the highlight games like that then Germany against England and this and that. After this latest setback, England manager Gareth Southgate reportedly called Klopp to ensure there was no ill feeling following the untimely injury to Lallana. Klopp admits he has no issue with Southgate as he understands the new Three Lions boss is under pressure to pick his best players.

Lallana blow gives Klopp derby headache 31 March 2017, 01:39 Tweet Adam Lallana's thigh injury is a significant setback for Jurgen Klopp as he seeks to strengthen Liverpool's Champions League qualification chances with victory over Everton in Saturday's Merseyside derby. Lallana is expected to be out for a month, having suffered the injury during the closing stages of England's 2-0 victory over Lithuania at Wembley last Sunday. They sit fourth going into the weekend's fixtures, with a four-point advantage over Manchester United in fifth. Klopp is in no doubt that Champions League qualification is in Liverpool's hands.
