Virgil van Dijk has named Liverpool teammate Roberto Firmino as the best player he has ever played with.
The Liverpool defender was asked the question on the Pitch Side podcast on YouTube and Van Dijk believes the Brazilian is top of the list.
Firmino and Van Dijk have been teammates since the defender moved to Liverpool from Southampton in January 2018 and have gone on to win every major honour together.

The captain of Holland also had to play against Firmino during his time at Southampton when the Brazilian was playing in his false nine position.
Van Dijk said: "I would say at Liverpool it's Bobby Firmino. But also knowing how difficult it is to play against him as a defender because he drops deep.
"I can say him, but Mo Salah, Sadio Mane, Thiago now. It's been enjoyable playing with these guys."
