Liverpool’s captain, Virgil Van Dijk, has been hit with an extended suspension after a dramatic red card incident in their recent clash against Newcastle. The star defender received a one-game ban for a contentious foul on Newcastle’s Alexander Isak. However, it was his fiery reaction to the red card that has now landed him an additional suspension, ruling him out of Liverpool’s upcoming match against Wolves on September 16.
The Football Association (FA) released a statement confirming Van Dijk’s admission of improper conduct, including the use of offensive language towards the match official, referee John Brooks. This admission played a pivotal role in the sanctions imposed on the Dutch defender.
