Watch: Van Dijk's surprise for LFC Foundation programme participant

A Liverpool fan was given an unusual surprise earlier this week when a routine call about his participation in an LFC Foundation programme ended in a chat with one of the Reds' first-team stars.

Ben Price is a member of one of LFC Foundation’s targeted employability schemes, which seeks to help vulnerable and homeless young people get back on their feet. The programme aims to promote physical and mental well-being and provide important life skills – and it has certainly made a profound and positive impact upon the 23-year-old.

Since enrolling on the course, Ben has turned his life around and is hoping to realise his lifelong passion of becoming a barber and eventually open up his own shop.
