Luis Diaz is reportedly happy at Liverpool despite links with a move to Barcelona. A tricky summer awaits the Colombian winger and his club.
According to Fabrizio Romano on Give Me Sport, Luis Diaz remains happy at Liverpool, and the club has plenty of faith in the player’s abilities. There have been concrete rumours about the Colombian winger moving away in the summer,
Luis Diaz to stay at Liverpool?
As the Premier League campaign draws to a close, the transfer rumours will take precedence over proceedings. One of the big transfer stories in the making is that of Colombian winger Luis Diaz, who has had a mixed-bag season with Liverpool despite performing well for most parts.
Like many of his club teammates, Diaz’s performances dropped significantly as Liverpool drifted out of the title race. Those displays have given rise to rumours that he could depart Liverpool and make a move to Spain, where he has plenty of interest, namely from Barcelona, a club that Diaz is reportedly open to joining.
With those links to the Catalan giants, alternative reports have suggested Barcelona may not be in a position to afford Diaz’s fee should Liverpool decide to sell. Further stories insist Liverpool are ready to cash in on the winger, who emerged after his father’s comments about making a dream move to Spain.
However, Fabrizio Romano insists that Liverpool trusts the player in whom they invested £50 million to sign him from Porto. Moreover, the Italian transfer guru also states that the winger is happy at Anfield but also hinted that the mood at the club might change should ‘crazy’ offers arrive at their table.
Romano said, “For Luis Diaz, there is a lot of interest. We always have reports from clubs from Spain and France. But, at the moment, I can guarantee that Liverpool trusts Diaz and wants to continue with him. “Let’s see if crazy proposals will arrive. At the moment, Liverpool are still very happy with Luis and Luis is also happy at Liverpool. The situation is quiet.”
Will Liverpool sell Diaz?
The arrival of new boss Arne Slot might shed new light on his plans to take the club forward. His ideas might not fit all the current stars. Even whether Diaz is part of those plans remains the question, as the club will surely acknowledge Barcelona or PSG’s interest in the winger ahead of the summer.
However, they also planned to offer him a new deal and ensure the winger stays at Anfield for the long haul. Should Liverpool receive crazy offers from those suitors, they might even consider selling the Colombian, although, as Romano states, things are rather quiet on all fronts.
