The Italian media has blasted Virgil van Dijk for his failure to control Rafael Leao during Milan's 4-2 pre-season win over Liverpool in Hong Kong.

Virgil van Dijk has revealed what he told Florian Wirtz to help seal a record-breaking £116m ($156m) transfer to Liverpool for the German playmaker.

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has suggested the club’s summer business may not be over, sparking further speculation about a possible move for Newcastle’s Alexander Isak. The Reds, who have already spent close to £300 million in this transfer window, appear determined to strengthen their squad even further before the new season kicks off.

Liverpool captain has left a heartfelt tribute to team-mate Diogo Jota, who passed away on Thursday at the age of 28.

Kevin De Bruyne has met up with Brazil icon Ronaldo - the “nicest legend in the game” - while enjoying a summer holiday with Virgil van Dijk.
