Virgil van Dijk teases Liverpool fans by posting a clip of himself running at their training ground as the Dutch defender continues his road to recovery after his horror injury in October's Merseyside derby

Virgil van Dijk has given Liverpool fans a welcome boost after he posted a video of himself running during a training session as he charts a comeback to full fitness.

The Dutchman has been sidelined since October - when he suffered a horror injury to his anterior cruciate ligaments following a dreadful challenge by Jordan Pickford during the Merseyside Derby.

It was feared the defender would miss the remainder of the season but he has provided a handful of positive updates on social media in recent weeks - showing himself working out in the gym and working with the ball.
