Liverpool attacker Luis Diaz is to meet with Barcelona chiefs in the coming weeks over a move to Catalonia this summer.
That's according to one report, which says the Colombian forward's representatives are looking at an exit for their client. Diaz has spent just a year and a half at Anfield, joining from Porto in the January transfer window of 2022.
While there has been talk that the 27-year-old may not suit incoming manager Arne Slot's style of play, Diaz's father, Luis Diaz Snr, has previously suggested a move to Spain could be on the cards one day for his son.
Now, journalist Breinner Arteta Canizares has claimed via TEAMtalk that talks between Barcelona and Diaz's entourage have been set, with Hansi Flick said to be interested in the attacker.
With Mohamed Salah still linked with an exit and Darwin Nunez linked with leaving in the final weeks of the season, it would certainly be surprising if Diaz were to exit, too – especially given that he is perhaps the most settled of the three players in Slot's frontline.
In FourFourTwo's view, the move may well have been rumoured for months now but would still be a huge surprise.
Given that Slot has only just arrived at Liverpool and is having to contend with both Salah and Nunez potentially leaving, Diaz would certainly be a player to keep – and with Barça's financial woes still prevalent, it would be a shock to see a player worth at least £60 million to the Merseysiders depart this summer.
According to a report from Tutto Atalanta, they have already begun preliminary contacts to sign the 25-year-old. He will be out of contract in 2026, and the Italian outfit are under pressure to sell him for a reasonable amount of money this summer.They will not want to lose the Brazilian on a free transfer next year. It is unlikely that he will sign an extension with them, and it remains to be see...
