215 Alexis Mac Allister has shared what he and Mohamed Salah keep doing to annoy Liverpool teammate Virgil van Dijk.
The Argentina international made the comments when speaking to DSPORTS.
So, what did Liverpool No.10 Alexis Mac Allister say about Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk? Let’s take a look…
Alexis Mac Allister and Mohamed Salah tease Virgil van Dijk
Well, you may remember the feisty 2022 World Cup quarter-final clash between Argentina and the Netherlands.
Lionel Messi famously clashed with Wout Weghorst and the entire Netherlands bench charged onto the pitch in anger after Leandro Paredes smashed the ball towards them in the dugout.
Over 12 months have passed since this memorable 2022 World Cup clash, although Mac Allister still uses it to poke fun at Van Dijk – with the help of Salah.
The £35m man said: “Me and Salah, all day long are saying anda pa allá, bobo (what Messi said to Weghorst] to Van Dijk. We are driving him crazy.”
Mac Allister also revealed he would like to return to Boca Juniors one day.
Spirits are high at Liverpool
Getting knocked out of a World Cup quarter-final is surely a low point in Van Dijk’s career.
Therefore, the fact Mac Allister and Salah feel they can joke about it on a regular basis suggests the Dutchman is a good sport within the dressing room at Liverpool, and can handle banter.
Van Dijk certainly seems like the type of character who can lift the mood behind the scenes, but also one who can switch the tempo to a more serious tone and get everybody focused.
As far as captain material goes, the Liverpool No.4 is exactly what you want.
Hopefully, Van Dijk can continue to play a major leadership role and help whoever replaces Jurgen Klopp, as Liverpool brace themselves for a summer of huge change.
By the sounds of it, Xabi Alonso could well replace the German – reports suggest Liverpool have now offered the Spaniard a contract.
