Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has revealed that consistency was key to their success this season.

Arne Slot’s side were crowned Premier League champions for 2024-25 season following their 5-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday.

The Reds won their first league title since winning the trophy back in 2019-20 season under then coach Jurgen Klopp.

Van Dijk has been ever-present in the Liverpool squad and featured in all their games, scoring two goals and grabbing one assist in 34 matches so far this season.

“It has been an amazing Premier League season for us, very consistent, well-deserved winners,” van Dijk told his club’s official website.

“The reaction we showed after going 1-0 down today was outstanding. Obviously it was a very emotional game.

“The time goes very slow towards the end, by the way! But I’m glad we got the job done and now we – and I speak about obviously everyone who is Liverpool-connected – can enjoy and celebrate because that’s what you should do as well.

He added: “Winning games after game after game, that’s the key. It’s a whole team process, everyone has played a part. Obviously guys don’t always start the game but they come on and have impact.

“And not only the players, the staff obviously plays a big part. But the people that are around us at the AXA Training Centre, the training ground.

“The fans. Everyone has to play a part. I think from day one when we started the season it was pretty obvious and pretty clear we have a big goal on our hands, big dreams and that we want to fulfil it. I’m glad we did. We got the big one. Amazing.”
