It has been reported that Liverpool and a Saudi Pro League delegation have met to discuss a possible move for Virgil van Dijk.
It is claimed that the Reds named a £55m asking price for the defender which the Saudi negotiators considered too expensive. They requested some time to think about it.
The Liverpool Echo report on it The Reds have had no contact from Saudi Arabia over the player never mind any actual solid bid.
The original report about the Saudi move comes from Teamtalk which is not considered the most trustworthy source when it comes to Liverpool transfers.
Trusted reporters such as James Pearce Fabrizio Romano or David Ornstein have not said anything about the negotiations. All previous reports have stated that Van Dijk wants to stay at Liverpool and help kickstart a new era under his compatriot Arne Slot.
With the captain contract expiring in 2025 it is inevitable that he is getting linked with a move away from Anfield. However this particular Saudi story looks like fake news.
