Formula One star Max Verstappen has revealed that he talks to Liverpool defender and fellow Dutchman Virgil van Dijk despite claiming to be a Manchester United supporter.
Having won F1 Championships in 2021 and 2022, Verstappen grasp on the sport is stronger than ever.
Despite being born in Belgium, Verstappen claims Dutch nationality and appears to be friendly with some of the nation's other sports stars.

"I'm a United fan," Verstappen confessed while laughing. "It's not like I'm a die-hard United fan. I mean, I'm talking to Virgil [van Dijk] and Liverpool players, stuff like that.
"For me, I enjoy it when I see a great football match and I think the Premier League is the best league out there. It has a lot of great players.
"I think Man City are winning a little bit too much, but then again, I can say the same thing about us [Red Bull]. The other teams need to get better."
