Every penny spent on Virgil van Dijk has been reimbursed in full.

The general public raised their eyebrows when Liverpool and Klopp signed Virgil van Dijk for a reported fee of 75 million pounds from Southampton. However, those eyebrows remained raised when Virgil van Dijk went on to win the PFA Premier League Player of the Year, as well as the runner-up in Ballon d’Or race.

In the 2019/20 season, the player has 0.7 tackles per game along with 4.4 clearances per game. Also, he has 14 clean sheets to his name in the top flight. If Jordan Henderson is a family hatchback car, the forward trio being sports cars, Virgil van Dijk has been smooth and classy as a Rolls Royce.

With an assured presence at back and being an imposing stature, Virgil van Dijk might be once again in the race of PFA Premier League Player of the Year.

The saying, “Corner taken quickly” will always remain as a headline in the player’s career. The fullback has cloaked great speeds in the wing-back position and with some delicious crosses. One can forget the big-money signings like Virgil van Dijk and Alisson but the contribution of TAA is unforgettable.

The full-back has terrorized the opposition with his speed and crosses. He redefined the position of fullback. The lavishly talented player has 12 assists to his name in 31 Premier League appearances.
