Barcelona’s search for a new left-winger has been well-documented, and the latest developments suggest they might have a high-profile option available, Report informs via Barca Universal.
Now, recent reports from Jose Alvarez in El Chiringuito TV indicate that Luis Diaz, currently at Liverpool, has expressed a strong desire to join Barcelona, with his representatives already making contact with Deco to communicate his intentions.
The Colombian winger has emerged as a prime candidate for Barcelona, as they look to reinforce their attack for the upcoming season.
His playing style, work ethic, and technical ability make him an ideal fit for the team’s requirements. Additionally, his current contract situation could provide Barcelona with an opportunity to negotiate a potential transfer.
Diaz is currently tied to Liverpool until 2027, but talks over a contract extension have stalled. While the English club did make an offer for renewal, the winger turned it down as it did not meet his expectations.
He remains on the deal he signed in 2022 and is reportedly seeking a significant salary increase. Liverpool, however, appear unwilling to meet his demands, which could lead to his departure in the summer while his market value remains high.
Meanwhile, another factor that could benefit Barcelona is Diaz’s admiration for the club. The player has always been vocal about his desire to play for the Blaugrana, and this could work in their favor if they decide to make an approach.
