Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has finally addressed the swirling rumors about a massive £16.8 million contract offer from Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal, as transfer expert Fabrizio Romano revealed key insights about the situation.

Van Dijk, whose contract with Liverpool expires at the end of the season, is reportedly weighing his options, with Al-Hilal keen to secure his signature to fill the void left by Neymar’s recent move to Santos. Despite the enticing offer, the Dutch defender remains focused on his current campaign with the Reds.

Speaking about his uncertain future, Van Dijk stated:

“I’ve no idea. I still have no idea at the moment. Genuinely, I have no idea at the moment. Talks aren’t on hold, nothing’s on hold. I keep saying the same thing. Listen, there are 10 games to go and that’s my full focus. If there is news, you guys will know it. I don’t even know myself. Everyone knows there are some conversations behind the scenes, but that’s about it. At the moment I don’t even know what will happen next year. If anyone says they do know, they’re lying to your face.”

Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano added further context, confirming the offer and the ongoing talks:

“Al-Hilal have presented a huge proposal to Virgil van Dijk — £16.8 million per season. The player has not responded yet as his focus remains on Liverpool’s final stretch of the season. Negotiations with Liverpool are not frozen, but there is still no agreement.”

With just months left on his contract, Liverpool fans are left anxiously waiting to see if their captain will extend his stay at Anfield or make a shock move to Saudi Arabia.

As the season reaches its climax, all eyes will be on Van Dijk — both on and off the pitch.
