Van Dijk would no doubt welcome linking up with star players like David de Gea, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba at Old Trafford.

The Dutchman will know that he has the added security of arguably the best keeper in the league behind him in de Gea. This relaxes defenders and could help Van Dijk settle quickly, much the same as Eric Bailly has so far this term.

Top attacking players like Ibrahimovic and Pogba are likely to drive United up the table before long, why wouldn’t you want to play in a team with such talents?
