The Dutch centre-back has been out of action since October following Jordan Pickford’s horror challenge on him in the box during the 2-2 draw with Everton. Pickford came flying at van Dijk with his feet at knee height for the defender and completely missed the ball, although no action was taken against the goalkeeper as van Dijk was offside from the pass.

He posted the update on Twitter, with Liverpool preparing to face Burnley in the Premier League at Anfield on Thursday night.
