The Dutch international played 237 appearances for Liverpool since joining from Newcastle in July 2016 and won the Premier League and Champions League at Anfield.
He announced he would be leaving the Merseyside club after the Reds’ win over Crystal Palace on the final day of the 2020/21 season.

“It was difficult for all of us because of how much this astonishing person means to the group,” Klopp said. “He’s been a big part of our lives for so long. There is nothing I won’t miss about him.
“I will miss the player he is like crazy – highest-quality ability, one of the smartest players I have ever had the privilege to coach. His contribution was off the scale, a manager’s dream.
“But as a person he’ll leave just as big a hole. A more giving individual you could not wish to meet. Gini is very strong and opinionated, but his motivation is only to help the team – always. His teammates adored him and respected him in equal measure. His smile lit up our workplace. He was a huge part of our beating heart.
“Farewell, Gini: you came, you saw, you won the lot. You’re a Liverpool legend now and forever.”
