Danny Murphy: Guehi can be Van Dijk’s successor

Speaking to , former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy said: “Could Marc Guehi be Virgil van Dijk’s long-term successor? Absolutely.

“I think the only thing Liverpool's recruitment might be wondering about is that the fee would be overinflated because he's a Premier League player. 

“I'd expect them probably to go further afield knowing the way they work but in terms of watching football and seeing him play, he is a terrific footballer.

“He is a good athlete and is in a great place in his career. He looks really comfortable with himself and has become the main man for England in his position.

“The one little small thing would be his physical size, I know he's not small, but Van Dijk's a mountain of a man. 

“Guehi is not as big, not as powerful, but he is quick. I think if Marc Guehi was to sign for Liverpool, there'd be very few fans disappointed in that signing.”

VVD is out of contract this summer, but Liverpool fans are hoping their captain will sign a new deal.
