Liverpool star Virgil van Dijk snubs Cristiano Ronaldo in his list of toughest opponents... as he includes Barcelona legend and two Man City heroes

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk ignored Cristiano Ronaldo in his list of toughest opponents he has faced.

Van Dijk has established himself as one of the best defenders in the world since joining the Reds for £75million in 2018.

He has helped guide the Merseyside club to Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup glory, facing some of the most prolific players in that time.

The Dutchman has come up against Ronaldo on a number of occasions including the 2018 Champions League final, yet the Real Madrid legend failed to make Van Dijk's list.
