Report: Virgil Van Dijk a Doubt for Liverpool Clash vs. Leicester Due to Illness

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk is a doubt for their clash against Leicester City on Wednesday evening as he continues to fight an illness he picked up after the team's recent warm-weather training in Dubai.

The Reds' last result was a 4-3 Premier League win over Crystal Palace on January 19, and James Pearce of the Liverpool Echo wrote Van Dijk is unlikely to line up against the Foxes unless he trains on Tuesday.

Jurgen Klopp's side are currently four points ahead of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League standings, with Pep Guardiola's defending champions set to host Arsenal on Sunday.
