Van Dijk: Salah can score against anyone, including Man City!

Virgil van Dijk believes Mohamed Salah has the attributes to beat any defence in world football, including Manchester City's.

The Reds will face the Premier League champions-elect in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final clash on Wednesday at Anfield.

Salah scored the fourth goal as the Reds beat City 4-3 in a thrilling domestic encounter in January, though he drew a blank in September as City won 5-0 at the Etihad Stadium.

Van Dijk, who was still playing for Southampton when Klopp's men were humiliated in Manchester, insists Salah has the ability to score against anyone, having netted a total of 37 goals in 41 games this season.
