Virgil van Dijk has sent Ben Chilwell a message of support following the Chelsea left-back's return from injury. The Liverpool defender offered his support on Instagram by commenting a clapping emoji under the 25-year-old's Instagram post.
The defender was dealt the blow back in November during the second half of an impressive Champions League win over Juventus. He was subsequently expected to miss the rest of the season, handing Thomas Tuchel's side a major setback in the Premier League title race and bid to retain Chelsea's European crown.
Chilwell featured 12 times for the Blues prior to his absence, directly contributing toward four goals. The England international was central to much of the west London side's success in the early stages of the season and Tuchel has been left to greatly rue the defender's injury.
