Virgil van Dijk might be Liverpool's defensive lynchpin - but he could have joined Manchester United instead, had the club's owners been prepared to splash the cash.
The Dutch national team captain joined the Reds in January 2017 for a then club-record £75million transfer fee and has gone on to win almost every major trophy on offer under Jurgen Klopp. But prior to his arrival on Merseyside, he was heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford while Jose Mourinho was still in charge of the Red Devils.
That interest has been given extra credence by football presenter Chris Kamara, who has shared an insightful conversation he had with the successful Portuguese manager before Van Dijk made his high-profile switch to Anfield.
