Van Dijk wants in-form star to be Hungary for more

- BY PAUL GORST

VIRGIL VAN DIJK saluted Dominik Szoboszlai for the “incredible" energy he brings to the team, as the Liverpool captain challenged him to keep his levels high.

Hungary skipper Szoboszlai has become an integral figure for Arne Slot and has been one of the standout performers this season at Anfield.

The No.8 again caught the eye as the Premier League champions beat Real Madrid 1-0 in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.

And it was his delivery which opened up the visitors for Alexis Mac Allister to head home the winner in the second half.

The versatile Szoboszlai has played in three different roles already this term, filling in as a makeshift right-back, while also operating in deeper and more advanced midfield positions.
