The once-linked-with-Liverpool defender admitted that the Liverpool no.4 alongside Sergio Ramos are top of his favourites centre-back in football.
"I look a lot at Sergio Ramos, I like his attitude,"
Botman told the Athletic .
"On the field, it's like, 'I'm the boss, everybody has to listen to me'. I think some attackers hold back a bit because of that confidence. Bogarde had the killing attitude, ‘Nobody will dribble past me’. I learned a lot from this mentality.
"I am very amazed by Virgil van Dijk, because of his body. It’s like the same as me and he is really fast. I like to see how he works with his body and how he plays against small strikers, like Sergio Aguero. I remember last season he had a record for how long an opponent didn’t pass him. For his size, it’s amazing — top performance. I have a mix of these three things those players have."
