(Video) Rio Ferdinand pretends to be Van Dijk’s ex-teammate as he fires cheeky text to LFC captain

Rio Ferdinand briefly masqueraded as a former teammate of Virgil van Dijk by texting the Liverpool captain from a phone which wasn’t his.

The ex-Manchester United defender was joined in the Legends Lounge (via his FIVE YouTube channel) by Jose Fonte, who previously played alongside the Dutchman at Southampton.

The Portugal Euro 2016 winner had to spin a challenge wheel with a series of dares, and it ultimately landed on one segment imploring him to hand his phone to the host to send a message pretending to be him.
