Virgil, You’re a Man After Our Hearts.

What can we say about you? Our captain for this European Championship. And not only a star on the field, as it turns out, but also in your private life: with a stunning wife and two adorable children. What a wealth.

And those euros you earn from your top-tier sports career can’t even compare to that.

For those dreaming of a one-on-one with our captain: sorry. Virgil is happily married to Rike Nooitgedagt since the summer of 2017. They met at a young age when our Oranje captain was just starting his career at FC Groningen. Now, they have two daughters, Nila and Jadi.

Rike Nooitgedagt has a background in the fashion industry and previously worked as a fashion saleswoman. However, she decided to give up her career to support Virgil in his football journey when he moved abroad to play for various clubs. Rike is known for her unwavering support and dedication to her family and is often seen at important football matches of Virgil van Dijk. They make a great team.

Virgil once said: “All in all, I’m just an ordinary guy who loves his family, like everyone else. We love relaxing, unwinding, and having fun together.” Rike prefers to stay out of the spotlight, which is why little is known about her. And in a way, we find that pretty cool. Come on, Virgil, let’s go for that European Championship final. You’ve got our support.
