Virgil van Dijk

Virgil van Dijk is a Dutch defender prized for his positioning, strength and the calmness with which he leads the defence. After periods at Celtic and Southampton, he established himself at Liverpool, with whom he won the Champions League in 2019 and the English championship in 2020. He stands out in aerial duels and through long passes sent to the attackers. Van Dijk tries to stop the danger by anticipating it, before having to intervene directly.
