Earlier this year, Van Dijk acknowledged that he 'doesn't know' what the future holds for him at Liverpool
Van Dijk said, “My future is not important at the moment. The only thing I can say now is if I have a farewell I don't think I would keep it dry (and not cry) because that was something I was very surprised with with him (Klopp).
“These fans are something else and eventually when they say goodbye to you then it will be special. Even with Joel, I said, 'How did you manage to keep it dry, pal?'. He just wanted to walk through it quickly and stand with us so I think he did that pretty well.
“At the moment there is nothing for me to say. Nothing has changed and nothing is on the table either. No changes in my situation at all.”
Van Dijk would team up with Aymeric Laporte to defend what would be a strong backline if he agreed to join Al Nassr.
