Veteran Germany defender Mats Hummels will have delighted Liverpool fans with his latest Instagram post as he paid tribute to a current Reds player.

The 35-year-old – who won the World Cup with his country in 2014 and is now a free agent after leaving Borussia Dortmund over the summer – posted a photo of himself at a five-a-side football pitch wearing our 2018/19 grey away kit with Virgil van Dijk’s name and number on the back.

The German also voiced his admiration for the LFC skipper in his accompanying caption, stating: ‘One of the best CB’s ever…wearing a @virgilvandijk jersey‍ sorry for that gag you are a beast ’.

Liverpool’s number 4 was evidently appreciative of Hummel’s Instagram activity as he double-tapped to like the post, and we’re sure that thousands of Reds fans will have been doing the same.

Consider this a case of one of Europe’s best centre-backs of the modern era showing huge admiration and respect for another!
