Van Dijk justifying record-breaking price tag at Liverpool despite not being 100 per cent

The Reds have been offered an immediate return on their £75 million investment, but the Dutchman claims there is even more to come from him

Virgil van Dijk may have helped to shore up Liverpool’s leaky defence, but the £75 million signing claims he is yet to hit 100 per cent.

The world’s most expensive defender has slotted seamlessly into the Reds fold following his January switch from Southampton.

He has helped to secure six clean sheets in his last nine appearances, with Liverpool benefiting from his presence to cement a top-four standing in the Premier League and make their way into the Champions League quarter-finals.
