Virgil van Dijk had a message for every single Liverpool fan after Sunday’s Premier League title win on Sunday : Celebrate and enjoy yourself. Certainly for those at Anfield, it was a request that was duly obliged by a set of supporters desperate to mark a first title being clinched in front of fans in 35 years.

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has ended any uncertainty about his future by signing a new two-year contract that commits him to Anfield until the summer of 2027. The 33-year-old Netherlands international’s previous terms were scheduled to expire once this season concludes and for many months it was unclear if an agreement would be found.
