Barcelona are interested in Luis Diaz again? Liverpool's carelessness could be exploited in Spain

Luis Díaz seems very comfortable in England and has become one of the key players in Liverpool's attack. Coach Arne Slot holds him in high regard and considers him a key player in his style of play, but alarms have been raised in Spain about a possible departure from the United Kingdom.

The Colombian arrived at the English team in January 2022, after Liverpool paid more than 45 million euros to Porto for his signing. He quickly adapted to coach Jürgen Klopp's style and won over the fans.

Is Barcelona knocking on Luis Díaz's door?

However, for some months now, his name has been ringing loudly in Spain and he is associated with FC Barcelona, ​​which is urgently looking for a left winger after failing to sign the Spaniard Nico Williams.

Luis Díaz's name would return to Barcelona's agenda, reported in Spain. According to the newspaper Mundo Deportivo, which quotes the specialized portal Teamtalk, the 27-year-old Guajiro is a card to reinforce the attack due to his situation in Liverpool.

The management of the Merseyside team seems to be confused with the renewal of the Egyptian Mohamed Salah, who is about to expire. Fenway Sports Group (FSG) is looking for an agreement, they say in England, but his current salary (23 million euros) and a possible increase would break the salary balance of the squad.

Liverpool gives no signs of renewal

The Colombian is a player who is waiting for a renewal to improve his salary, which at this time is higher than 3 million euros. But the negotiations with Salah, Arnold and van Dijk put Lucho in the background.

There are no signs of renewal and Barcelona could enter the scene to improve that salary and take him to Spain to play with the team of his loves. “Diaz arrived at Anfield in the winter transfer market of the 21-22 season and has a contract until June 30, 2027. He is a key player in Arne Slot's plans, although he is at the lower end of the squad's salary structure,” said the cited media outlet.

“Luis Díaz's situation is a secondary issue for Liverpool right now, which represents an opportunity for Barcelona, ​​who are still interested in a left winger, to try to sign him,” said Mundo Deportivo.

Lucho is an “attractive target” for the Blaugrana squad, but if they want to carry him out they must move several financial levers, since the Colombian's price is prohibited for many.

According to the update of the specialized portal Transfermark, Luis Díaz has a value of 85 million euros, the highest for a Colombian in all history. Liverpool would not be willing to let him go for less than 100 million.
