Barca were heavily interested in signing Nico Williams this summer, but the Spaniard has renewed his contract with Athletic Club until 2035. Hence, with Williams out of the picture, Barcelona have turned their attention to Luis Diaz. As per Goal, Sporting director Deco has been a big admirer of the Colombian winger for a while now.

Amidst the speculation about his future, Diaz recently told Colombian media about his future at Liverpool:

"It's not known yet, we're talking with the board. We're comfortable with where I am, and we'll have to see."

Diaz's contract with the Reds expires in 2027. His representatives are looking at their options of either a new contract or a transfer. Along with Barcelona, Bayern Munich are also interested in Diaz as they look to replace Leroy Sane, who has joined Galatasaray. As per Transfermarkt, the 28-year-old's market value is €70 million, which could prove to be an issue for Barca but not for Bayern.

Diaz joined Liverpool from FC Porto for a reported fee of €54 million in January 2022. He's recorded 41 goals and 23 assists in 148 games for the club.

Diaz has also been linked with a potential move to Al-Nassr, but he is likely to stay in Europe. In the 2024-25 season, he recorded 13 goals and seven assists in 36 Premier League games, helping Liverpool win the title.

Meanwhile, if Barcelona fail in their pursuit of Diaz, they will move to Marcus Rashford, who is looking to leave Manchester United this summer.
