Liverpool defender van Dijk: You can’t compare me with Messi

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk says it’s impossible to compare himself and Lionel Messi.

The Barcelona star pipped van Dijk to win his fifth FIFA Best Men’s Player of the Year award on Monday, with Juventus star Cristiano Ronaldo finishing third.

“The people who vote made a decision and you have to accept it,” Van Dijk told reporters.

“That’s just the case and as players you can’t compare me and Messi because it’s totally different.

“I’m very proud to be here.”
