Virgil van Dijk will be ‘mad’ at Richarlison dribbling jibe ahead of Merseyside derby, says ex-Liverpool star Enrique


RICHARLISON has been warned Virgil van Dijk will be “mad” at him for his less-than-kind comments by former Kop ace Jose Enrique.

The Everton forward, 23, incredibly suggested the Dutch star wasn’t one of the best defenders in the world.

Richarlison’s dig at Van Dijk, 28, is all the more staggering given a heavily-weakened Liverpool XI stormed to a 5-2 win at Anfield in the December clash that saw him allegedly “dribble past him”.

But ex-Reds star Jose Enrique took to Twitter to warn Richarlison he’s asking for trouble ahead of Sunday’s game.

Enrique tweeted: “Richarlison an advice for next time.

“Speak after the game mate – now you got VVD mad.

“Let’s see what happens. Come on Reds!!”

Ahead of the massive derby Richarlison had told Desimpedidos: “People talk a lot about [Van Dijk].

“Yes, he is a great defender – but I’ve already dribbled past him.

“He was chosen as one of the top three in the world as he had an excellent season. But yes, for me there are better defenders.”

Asked who these “better defenders” are, Richarlison went for two of his Brazilian compatriots and a certain Spaniard that’s not too popular at Anfield…

Revealing his top three, Richarlison continued: “Thiago Silva, Marquinhos and Sergio Ramos.”

Van Dijk and Richarlison will be given the chance to settle their differences on the pitch at 7pm on Sunday night at Anfield.
