Virgil van Dijk is close to leaving Liverpool as he approaches the end of his contract. The defender has six months left at Anfield and is considering his next move. Reports suggest that Van Dijk wants to play in Major League Soccer (MLS) in the United States. He hopes to enjoy one last adventure abroad before retiring from football. The 33-year-old has also received a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal but prefers the American culture over that option. Van Dijk is one of several key players, including Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold, who are nearing the end of their contracts, and Liverpool is eager to keep them. However, it appears that Van Dijk's mind is set on moving to the MLS. After Liverpool's recent exit from the Champions League, Van Dijk met with officials from Paris Saint-Germain. He expressed to them that he is open to new opportunities this summer. However, it remains uncertain if he will stay in Europe or pursue his MLS dream.
