The incredible bond between Virgil van Dijk and Kevin de Bruyne is only now being known to fans. Even though they play against each other in the Premier League, they obviously have a close relationship off the field.
To see DJ Calvin Harris perform, the two have traveled to Ibiza on multiple occasions. They posed for a picture with the well-known DJ during their first visit together in 2022. Later, Calvin Harris posted this image to Instagram, where his 11.4 million followers saw it. They have been photographed together on several occasions.
The Manchester City and Liverpool players went to another DJ Calvin Harris performance in 2023. This time, they were joined by Nathan Ake and Marcus Rashford, both of whom play in the Premier League. Van Dijk even got to go on stage with Harris at the Ushuaïa club, and the five of them posed for a group photo.
De Bruyne and Van Dijk carried on their custom this year by traveling to witness the DJ perform.
Fans were thrilled when Harris posted another photo of the three of them.
They now understand that, despite Liverpool and Manchester City frequently competing for the championship, the two seem to be very close friends and are able to put their on-field rivalry behind them.
