Virgil van Dijk has transformed Liverpool’s defence
And he was a rock at the back as the Reds beat Tottenham 2-0 to secure a sixth Champions League trophy in Madrid on Saturday.
Van Dijk kept the returning Harry Kane quiet and made a last-ditch challenge to deny Heung-min Son in the second-half.

Jurgen Klopp’s men had the best defensive record in the 2018/19 Premier League season, conceding just 22 times and keeping 21 clean sheets.
Speaking after Liverpool’s Champions League triumph, Van Dijk said: “I came out to Liverpool because look how passionate the fans are, real fans.
