Former Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp admits he's a big fan of Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk.

Van Dijk joined Liverpool from Southampton for £75m - a world-record transfer fee for a defender - in January.

Redknapp told talkSPORT: “Van Dijk has been amazing.

“Isn't it amazing, he goes to Celtic, he's playing great up there.

“You can imagine the amount of scouts that must have looked at him, they all go and look at him.

“'Well, you know, yeah, but he's playing in Scotland'.

“And suddenly Southampton take a gamble, they buy him, bring him down to the Premier League, and suddenly he's £70m-odd.

“Where were all the great judges before he went to Southampton? It makes you wonder doesn't it.

“But what a player he looks now, fantastic."
