Virgil van Dijk enjoyed a relaxing break from training after the 2024 Euros on Tuesday, spending time with his family on a luxury yacht in Ibiza.
The Liverpool captain, 33, showcased his impressive physique, including his well-defined six-pack, while going shirtless. He was accompanied by his wife Rike Nooitgedagt and their four children, Nila, Jadi, Noa, and Mase, for their sun-soaked vacation.
Despite the Netherlands being eliminated from the Euros semi-finals by England last week, Virgil appeared in high spirits, taking to paddleboarding while wearing a lifejacket.

Rike also turned heads in a small brown bikini that highlighted her toned figure.
Rike shielded her eyes with a pair of distinctive sunglasses as she cooled off by leaping into the water from the back of the boat.
Virgil and Rike, who grew up together in Breda, Netherlands, began dating as teenagers. She has supported him throughout his football career across Europe. Rike previously worked as a fashion sales manager but left her job to move with Virgil to Scotland when he joined Celtic.
Preferring to avoid the typical WAG lifestyle, Rike has chosen to keep their family life private and stay out of the limelight.
In 2019, she explained her decision, saying, “I worked as a sales manager and sold various fashion brands to stores in Holland. I loved it but had to resign to follow my man wherever football takes him.”
The couple welcomed their first child, daughter Nila, in 2014, followed by daughter Jada two years later. They married in 2017.
They have openly expressed their love for each other, with Rike once sharing on Instagram, “I love you not only for who you are but for who I am when I’m with you.” Virgil also posted a holiday photo with the caption, “You are the love of my life!”
