We are cool, everybody.”Virgil van Dijk is Liverpool’s captain but is yet to join his teammates on pre-season having received an extended break following the World Cup.However, Andy Robertson’s departure to Tottenham means there is now an opening for the Reds’ vice-captaincy role.The appointment of Liverpool’s vice captain is especially important given Van Dijk is expected to leave at the end of the upcoming season when his contract expires.Szoboszlai has already had a taste of life wearing the skipper’s armbandGettyNext man upThere are plenty of contenders for the role, with Szoboszlai chief among them.Also in the mix is goalkeeper Alisson and defender Joe Gomez, who is Liverpool’s longest-serving player in the squad.Szoboszlai admitted it would be a ‘proud moment’ if he were to become Van Dijk’s understudy but would gladly follow whoever gets the nod should it not be him.“We have Ali, we have Joe Gomez (as vice-captaincy options)… obviously Ali is not on tour. Joe is injured,” Szoboszlai said.“I was very proud to have (the captaincy on tour). And let’s see. It’s not my choice.‘It’s not fixed. If you get offered the vice-captain in Liverpool, you’re going to take it. It would be a proud moment for me. But I respect everybody. “So either way, whoever it’s going to be, we’re going to follow them.”
