Saudi club planning to make €50m bid for Liverpool star.

A Saudi Pro League team is contemplating a €50m bid for Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk, according to Turkish journalist Ekrem Konur.

Van Dijk's contract with the Reds is set to end in the summer of 2025.

Clubs across Europe and in Saudi Arabia will be keeping an eye on the Dutch defender's situation.

Now it has been claimed that a Saudi Pro League club is planning to test Liverpool by making a €50 million bid.

Liverpool intends to begin discussions to extend the Dutch defender's contract at the conclusion of the season.

Now it remains to be seen whether the Reds can extend Van Dijk's contract or decide to cash in on him.

The 32-year-old defender has appeared 31 times for the Anfield club this season.

Liverpool are currently sitting at the top of the Premier League with 60 points, one point ahead of last season's treble-winner Manchester City
