Virgil van Dijk has been a revelation for Liverpool since the club broke the bank in order to bring the Dutchman to Anfield back in January 2018.
The 28-year-old, famed for his defending, has been captured showing off his technical ability during the warm-up at Molineux.
The greatest defender the Premier League has ever seen?
Yes
No
Here’s how the fans reacted to the central defender’s flicks and tricks…
The beast .

What do we think?
When Van Dijk signed for Liverpool, the transfer fee may have seemed somewhat over the top, but fast-forward two years and we’d imagine there won’t be a fan out there who doesn’t believe the former Southampton and Celtic defender wasn’t worth every single penny.
He’s already tasted Champions League glory with Jurgen Klopp’s side and now looks set to help the Reds end their 30-year wait for a league title. Van Dijk has already established himself as an Anfield great and there’s plenty more to come from him and the rest of this magnificent team.
