Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk has hailed the preseason form of goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher.

Kelleher has received some huge praise from Van Dijk during Liverpool's pre-season trip to Austria.

In a training clip shared by LFC TV, the 22-year-old pulled off a fine save during a practice session and Van Dijk, watching from behind the goal was clearly impressed.

Turning to the camera, the defender compared Kelleher to AC Milan great Nelson Dida.

He said: “Look at Caoimhin though. Absolutely flames. He's playing like Dida, from the Brazil team."
