It may come as a surprise to many football fans to learn that Virgil Van Dijk and Kevin De Bruyne share a close friendship despite being rivals on the pitch. 

The Manchester City midfield maestro and Liverpool captain appear to be the best of friends this summer in Spin even though the pair have never played alongside one another or haven't had a clear opportunity to build a relationship.

So where did this budding friendship come from? - where were the foundations of this friendship built if the only time they have interacted is when they are playing against each other in the Premier League

It appears that the duo struck up an unlikely friendship thanks to their love for dance/electronic music, more specifically because they both like the same DJ.

This was on display this weekend as the two partied at the famous party venue Ushuaia Ibiza to watch Scottish DJ Calvin Harris play his set.
