Virgil van Dijk has been named the new Liverpool captain with Trent Alexander-Arnold appointed vice captain as Jurgen Klopp appointed his successor to Jordan Henderson.
The Netherlands defender was expected to fill the void left by Henderson who conceded the armband by choosing to join Saudi Arabian side Al-Ettifaq, after being lured to the Middle East and putting pen-to-paper on a staggering £700,000-per-week deal.
Van Dijk joined the Reds from Southampton in 2018 and has become one of the club's top performers during a purple patch of success that saw the club win a first Premier League title and sixth Champions League trophy.
