Jamie Redknapp reveals the importance of Virgil Van Dijk at Liverpool

"They will find another Mo Salah but you won’t find another Van Dijk."

Jamie Redknapp pinpointed the most important Liverpool player following their 2-1 victory against Southampton at St. Mary's Stadium on Tuesday night. The former England midfielder highlighted Virgil Van Dijk as irreplaceable after Jurgen Klopp made nine changes to his side as they closed the gap on Manchester City to one point.

Jamie Redknapp makes Virgil Van Dijk claim.

Redknapp said Liverpool a great place to play football when you're performing well because the club will "look after you." The 48-year-old is of the opinion that Mohamed Salah shouldn't be on more money than Van Dijk, as the defender cannot be replaced. "The players have the power. One thing I learned from being at this club is that they will reward you and look after you when you are doing well," Redknapp said on Sky Sports. "But sometimes if we give him big money. I wouldn’t give anyone more money than Virgil van Dijk. He should be on the most. "They will find another Mo Salah but you won’t find another Van Dijk. There will always be another great striker who comes to this club."

Liverpool's quadruple hopes.

Liverpool can still complete the quadruple as they've already won the Carabao Cup and FA Cup. The Reds play Wolves on the final day of the Premier League season at Anfield on Sunday, with kick-off at 4:00 pm. Liverpool are one point off Man City with one game left in the Premier League season, then the Reds face Real Madrid in the final of the Champions League in Paris on the 28th of May. Klopp could become the first manager in history to complete a quadruple since Jock Stein's Celtic, who won the quadruple in 1967. Related links:
