Liverpool defender, Virgil van Dijk, has revealed what he likes most about ‘fantastic’ teammate, Ibrahima Konate.
Konate arrived at Anfield last summer from RB Leipzig.
The Frenchman started alongside Van Dijk in the Champions League final against Real Madrid despite facing competition from Joel Matip and Joe Gomez.
The 23-year-old played 29 times in his debut campaign under manager, Jurgen Klopp.
Speaking with Liverpool’s official website, Van Dijk said, “He’s a very, very good player. What I like the most about him is the will to learn each and every day as well. Obviously, there are loads of things that can improve – and that is good because he has time, he needs the experience. In my opinion, experience is a big thing for a centre-half to learn and to take with you.
“In his case, I’m very happy to see him develop, I’m very happy to see him shine on and off the pitch, he’s a fantastic character. But I can say that about the other two [Gomez and Matip] as well. We are very blessed as a club and I am very blessed to have these players around me as well.”
