The Liverpool captain joins Gary and Micah on The Rest is Football.

He discusses the Klopp Factor, that Champions League Triumph & how Liverpool can win the league.

What makes Jurgen Klopp so special? And how did Virgil and his teammates celebrate winning the Champions League in 2019. Plus what do Liverpool need to do to win the Premier League this year?

Virgil van Dijk was speaking exclusively to The Rest Is Football at the launch of this year’s McDonald’s Fun Football programme, which aims to encourage participation in the sport through free coaching sessions for children.
