The story in brief
26-second readVan Dijk closes in on rare company as Liverpool head to Linz Not every milestone is worth making a fuss over, but this one is.
If Virgil van Dijk leads Liverpool out against LASK this week, he will do so for the 200th time as captain, a figure only seven players in the club’s entire history have ever reached.
Rare company Steven Gerrard sits clear at the top with 470 appearances as captain, with Ron Yeats, Emlyn Hughes, Donald Mackinlay, Jordan Henderson, Alex Raisbeck and Sami Hyypia completing the list of players to reach 200 or more.
