Virgil van Dijk is predicting Jarell Quansah will make it to the very top at Liverpool but he is urging the "outstanding" young centre-back to keep working hard.
Quansah, 20, made his debut off the bench in the comeback win away to Newcastle United
Van Dijk told TNT Sports he “fully trusts” the Warrington-born defender, to thrive once he continues to learn and develop on the training ground.

“He was outstanding in the circumstances when he came on against Newcastle for his debut,”
"Making your debut is special, and to make his full debut the other day [against Wolves] was outstanding."
“It's just the start, and he has to recognise that way as well and keep working because even if it happened the other day, it's still not guaranteed for what happens next.
"But he's a good boy and I fully trust that he will be very important for the football club in the near future.”
Van Dijk added:
“If he can achieve what I have achieved, then that would also be a great thing for him.
“But he has plenty of time and I am very pleased and proud of him.
"It's a start and he has to keep working and learning, and in the moments he does play, he has to be ready.
"He's at a great club with great players, a great manager and a great fanbase, so he has all the foundations to keep going.”
