Virgil van Dijk is not just one of the best defenders on the planet but also “one of the best players in the world”, with former Liverpool team-mate Conor Masterson revealing what makes him so great.
The Netherlands international has earned himself a standing among the global elite with his performances since completing a record-setting £75 million ($93m) move to Anfield.
He has already landed a Champions League crown and the UEFA Player of the Year award, while many are tipping him to complete an individual set by claiming FIFA The Best and Ballon d’Or prizes.
