Is Virgil van Dijk actually leaving Liverpool? I did hear something like that before but I was not sure about it if it was actually authentic news or not. But if he is actually leaving, I think he still has the ability to perform well by playing in a big club in the Europe leagues. so I do not know if he will be very keen on joining any club from the Saudi League. My personal opinion is that he is only 32 years old. He still has a lot of good performance left in him to give to his club. Joining Al Nassr might be a waste of his talent if he does that so early in his career. But if he is going for money, it is definitely a good decision for him. He is probably not going to get the level of money that Al Nassr is going to give him from anywhere else. But I still highly doubt that he will go to Al Nassr so early in his career.
From the many news sites I read, it looks like Virgil Van Dijk will not leave Liverpool. The reason is that he still has one more season's contract at Liverpool, apart from that he also stated that he will stay at Liverpool.
“I still have one year left on my contract. I'm the club captain and I've made it clear that I'll be there for the new coach and I'm excited for next season. Of course there will be many changes, but I am sure we will achieve great success.”

The reason is, even though Van Dijk left and for example ended his contract with Liverpool, he did not seem interested in the Saudi Arabian League. However, he seems to really want to join Barcelona, because in several interviews he also said things that indicated he really wanted to join Barcelona.
So now it looks like Al Nasr has to look for another strong defender to make his defense even stronger. So far I have not received any information regarding who Al Nasr's tough defender will be bringing in. Maybe this season Al Nasr can bring in defenders from other clubs in Saudi Arabia. Because if Al Nasr is too insistent on bringing in young defenders from Europe, in my opinion it will be very difficult. Because young players in Europe definitely have big dreams and don't just want to make money. So you can be sure that Al Nasr will definitely have difficulty bringing in young defenders from Europe.
Apart from that, if for example Al Nasr still wants a defender from Europe, but for example the player is old, I am sure that if Al Nasr succeeds in bringing him in then the results will not be good. So it would be better for Al Nasr to look for a talented young defender from Saudi Arabia, if for example looking for a European player is no longer possible.
