Luis Díaz Confirms Transfer Talks Amid Liverpool Contract Stalemate

Luis Diaz has confirmed he is in talks with other clubs amid uncertainty regarding his future at Liverpool, with Barcelona showing significant interest. Although Diaz expressed happiness at Liverpool, he acknowledged ongoing discussions with rival clubs and stated that he is waiting to see what happens with his current contract, which has two years remaining. Liverpool has rejected Barcelona's bid and insists Diaz is not for sale, yet the club has not actively pursued a contract extension, raising speculation about a possible sale to avoid losing him for free later. Reports indicate Diaz is eager to join Barcelona and has reportedly halted contract talks with Liverpool, with his agent conveying this desire to the club's management. Liverpool demands a high transfer fee around €80-85 million, but Barcelona hopes to negotiate a lower price, seeing Diaz as a priority target amid their plans to fund other signings. Despite interest from Saudi clubs, Diaz appears determined to move to Barcelona, and negotiations are ongoing with optimism for a deal before the summer transfer window closes.
