Van Dijk Names Messi As His Toughest Opponent

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.

The popular centre-back is undoubtedly at the top of the game, having come up against the world’s greatest players.

And, while taking part in a Twitter Q&A on Tuesday night, Van Dijk had specific praise for two Argentine stars.

When asked who his toughest opponent was, he replied: “There are some difficult strikers out there but probably Leo Messi.”

Another fan then asked Van Dijk about his hardest rival to mark, with the Dutch star responding with: “Aguero.”
