Virgil van Dijk has transformed Liverpool’s defence
And he was a rock at the back as the Reds beat Tottenham 2-0 to secure a sixth Champions League trophy in Madrid on Saturday.

Speaking after Liverpool’s Champions League triumph, Van Dijk said: “I came out to Liverpool because look how passionate the fans are, real fans.
