Virgil van Dijk has backed "fantastic" Fabio Carvalho to be a success at Liverpool - as he revealed his part in helping persuade Joe Gomez to sign a new contract.
Carvalho has been an impressive performer in his three cameo appearances thus far this pre-season having arrived from Fulham at the start of the month.
As one of the members of Liverpool's leadership group, Van Dijk has been helping both the teenager and fellow summer signing Darwin Nunez settle, with the Reds currently on a week-long training camp in Austria.
