Virgil van Dijk
34-Year-Old
Liverpool
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Van Dijk is still one of the best center-backs in the world and he anchors one of the top defenses in the Premier League. He's always going to pile on the defensive volume, and generally puts together a handful of goal contributions each season. He's logged at least 30 starts every season with Liverpool, which kind of says it all. After securing 14 clean sheets in 37 starts last season, he should again be near that number with similar overall stats expected in 2025/26 no matter what Arne Slot decides to do with the Liverpool formation.
Still elite
van Dijk made 37 starts and scored three times with one assist in the Premier League, keeping 14 clean sheets.
ANALYSIS
van Dijk was brilliant once more in the Premier League, leading Liverpool to a second title. He was the best defender in the league yet again, an imposing presence in the second best defense in the league. Van Dijk is certainly aging, but he's showing little signs of slowing down, remaining active on the ball and shutting down attacks before they even develop.
