Van Dijk was recently sent home from his international duties with the Netherlands after picking up a minor injury, prompting concerns from Liverpool fans.
However, Koeman has shut down claims that Van Dijk will face a spell on the sidelines, insisting that his exclusion from the national team’s upcoming clash with Belgium is based only on precautionary measures.
Van Dijk has played a pivotal part in Liverpool’s strong start to the campaign and is sure to be key for the club’s title challenge this term.
