Liverpool face arguably their biggest test of the season so far as they welcome champions Manchester City to Anfield on Sunday, and it seems Virgil van Dijk is stepping up his footwork ahead of the big game.
Footage released by the club shows a training session in which several key players are playing a classic game of 'keep ball', when the Dutchman sends his team-mates wild with a tidy nutmeg of fellow defender Kostas Tsimikas.
The young Greek, who has had a breakout season deputising for Andy Robertson, was fiercely chasing the ball around before van Dijk's cheeky piece of skill saw his head briefly drop as the other Reds fell about laughing.
