The Liverpool men’s squad made their annual Christmas visit to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital on Monday. Not only the kids, also the parents,” said Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk.

“It’s great for us to be here. It’s tough to hear certain stories, but we know what it could bring if we are here and visiting the kids.

I’m really happy to be here.” Curtis Jones said: “I love coming here with the lads and putting a smile on the kids’ faces and the staff and the families. And it’s nice to see the staff with how hard they work, giving them a bit of help as well.” This is such a touching part of Liverpool’s Christmas schedule every year, with the players making youngsters’ dreams come true by meeting them.
