Due to the fact that the player is reportedly looking to force a transfer this summer, Arne Slot may have to get ready for a life without one of Liverpool’s most accomplished players.
Following a string of unfortunate events that culminated in Liverpool being eliminated from the Champions League in the quarterfinals just a few days before they were defeated in the Carabao Cup final, all attention is now focused on their efforts to win the Premier League.
Some fans, however, have already begun fantasising about the summer transfer window because it appears that the Reds will dethrone Manchester City this season. This is because the likelihood of this happening is growing.
With one of Slot’s most prominent players willing to force a transfer this summer, it appears that Slot may already have been dealt a serious blow. The transfer window will once again open on June 12, but it appears that Slot may already have been dealt a serious blow.
Due to the fact that the contracts of Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, and Trent Alexander-Arnold are all scheduled to expire at the conclusion of the current season, Liverpool supporters will surely be concerned about the possibility of losing any one of these three star players.
The Uruguayan striker Darwin Nunez will also be the subject of attention in the coming months, given the unsatisfactory performances he has displayed throughout the current season.
On the other hand, a new report that was published in the edition of the Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo that was published on Saturday made it abundantly clear that Liverpool supporters should also anticipate losing Luis Diaz in the summer. This is because he has achieved a position at the top of Barcelona’s summer target list.
Despite the fact that the Colombian winger has been linked with the La Liga giants for some time now, it now appears that these links are beginning to heat up in anticipation of the upcoming transfer window.
According to a different report, the Spanish publication asserted that the 28-year-old player, who is currently under contract with Liverpool until the year 2027, is eager to make the move and is willing to wait “as long as it takes” to secure his dream move.
Taking this into consideration, the newspaper asserts that Diaz “would not hesitate to force” a move away from Anfield if the rumours that suggest Barcelona will enquire about signing Diaz in the coming months are to be believed. The rumours suggest that Barcelona will make an inquiry about signing Diaz.
Despite the fact that Salah has had some lacklustre performances this season, the report claims that Slot would consider this to be a significant blow. Slot is hoping to keep Diaz because he currently anticipates Salah to leave the club at the end of the season.
During the current season, Díaz has made a total of 42 appearances, during which he has scored 13 goals and registered five assists. If Barcelona were to acquire his services, it is highly probable that he would demand a substantial price tag.
