According to a report by Joaquim Piera of Diario Sport, FC Barcelona is making preparations to launch a significant bid to acquire Colombian international Luis Díaz from Premier League club Liverpool during the upcoming summer transfer window.
The club’s current sporting director, Deco, has held a long-standing admiration for Díaz, considering him an ideal fit for Barcelona’s left-wing position. This interest persisted even while the club explored other attacking options, such as Nico Williams. Recent developments indicate that new head coach Hansi Flick has now officially endorsed the pursuit of Díaz, signaling his approval for the club to move forward with their plans to secure the player.
Luis Díaz, who is 28 years old, delivered an impressive performance last season, registering a total of 17 goals and 8 assists across all competitions. Reports suggest that he is enthusiastic about the possibility of playing for Barcelona and is open to the move. Although his potential transfer fee is estimated to be approximately €75 million, it is believed that his personal salary expectations will not be a barrier for the club.
Barcelona’s leadership sees Díaz as a pivotal reinforcement who could significantly enhance the squad for the 2025/26 season, particularly under the tactical guidance of Hansi Flick.
