GettyWHAT HAPPENED?
Van Dijk has been a top target for Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund as they look to improve the quality of the Saudi Pro League even further. With the Dutchman having cast doubt on his Liverpool future, TEAMtalk have now revealed that Liverpool are asking for a sum of €55 million (£46.3m/$59.8m) for a move this summer.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Furthermore, the report states that the PIF believes Liverpool’s demands are too high for an ageing defender whose contract is set to run out in less than a year. With the Reds defender’s current contract valid till the summer of 2025, the PIF is ready to delay the deal as he can be tied to a pre-contract agreement in January for a move next summer as a free agent.

GettyWHAT VAN DIJK SAID
Speaking to Reuters last week, Van Dijk spilt doubts about his Liverpool future, saying: “I haven’t the slightest idea right now (about my future). I will think carefully this summer about what I want at the club level and as an international player. Then we’ll go for it again, but first recover from this. After a season like this, where all kinds of things have happened, it gets emotional at the end because you know it’s over.”
