Liverpool 'will sell' Luis Diaz this summer, but only on one condition

Liverpool could reportedly sell Colombian star Luis Diaz this summer on one condition.

Back in January 2022, Diaz completed his move to Anfield from Portuguese side Porto in a deal worth a reported £37 million.

The Colombian hit the ground running straight away and quickly became a fans’ favourite.

To date, the 27-year-old has scored 21 goals in 82 appearances across all competitions for the Reds.

However, Diaz’s form dropped last season due to a knee injury. At the start of the current campaign, the forward had to endure a major off-field issue after his parents were kidnapped in Colombia.

In recent weeks, Diaz started to produce the kind of football we saw in his early Liverpool days.

Despite his recent upturn in form, it has been claimed that Liverpool could offload the winger in the summer transfer window.

As reported by The Sun, Liverpool’s main priority in the summer is to tie down the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah to new contracts.

It is believed that if Salah decides to extend his stay at Anfield, Liverpool could be open to selling Diaz, with clubs in Spain reportedly interested.

The report also stated that Liverpool are aware that conversations with their biggest stars cannot commence until they have a new sporting director and a replacement for Jurgen Klopp sorted.

So far, Liverpool have been linked with the likes of Xabi Alonso, Roberto De Zerbi, Thomas Frank, Ruben Amorim and Ange Postecoglou as potential replacements for Klopp.

Transfer Specialist Fabrizio Romano has also claimed that the Reds are going to try and lure former sporting director Michael Edwards back to the club.

Liverpool are back in Premier League action this weekend when they travel to the City Ground to take on Nottingham Forest on Saturday afternoon.
