Liverpool superstar Virgil van Dijk has named Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero as the two toughest opponents he has faced.

The Dutch defender, 28, has been an integral player at Anfield after joining from Southampton in 2018, helping the Reds to a memorable Champions League triumph last season.

Van Dijk has also played a starring role in Liverpool’s pursuit for league glory this campaign, with the Premier League giants just two wins away from securing their first title crown in 30 years.
