Big interview | Virgil van Dijk: Liverpool is my club and I'm proud to wear the shirt every day

The way everyone associated with Liverpool Football Club lives and breathes the success of the team is what convinced Virgil van Dijk to join.

The centre-half's impact on the Reds following his arrival from Southampton in January 2018 has been profound and he was deservedly named PFA Players' Player of the Year for 2018-19 last month.

But the No.4 would be willing to give up the widespread praise and personal accolades if it guaranteed victory for Jürgen Klopp's side in Madrid this Saturday when they take on Tottenham Hotspur in the Champions League final.

Liverpoolfc.com sat down with Van Dijk at the squad's recent training camp in Marbella for a wide-ranging, in-depth chat ahead of the meeting with Spurs.
