FC Barcelona is once again in the market looking to reinforce its squad for next season. And the name that has been heard the loudest in recent hours is that of Luis Díaz, Liverpool’s Colombian winger.
According to the newspaper As, Barça would be very interested in signing the 27-year-old player. Deco, a former Barça player and current sports director, really likes the Colombian and believes that he would fit perfectly into the Catalans’ playing style.
Luis Díaz’s own father has admitted in a recent interview that his son is a “faithful Barça follower” and that he has always dreamed of playing at the Camp Nou. “It’s a dream for him,” he said.
Barça already tried to sign Díaz in 2022, but Liverpool snatched him away at the last moment. Laporta, president of the Barça club, has admitted that the Colombian was one of the players they liked the most in that market.
However, for Barça to sign Díaz, they will first have to release a player from the current squad. The main candidate to leave is Raphinha, who has not finished gelling at the Camp Nou.
If Barça manages to sell Raphinha, they will have free rein to go after Díaz. The Colombian would cost around 50 million euros, a figure that the Barça club could assume if they get rid of the Brazilian.
Luis Díaz would be a luxury reinforcement for the Barça squad. He is a fast, skilled and goal-scoring player. He is able to overwhelm the wings and put good crosses into the area. Furthermore, he can also play as a center forward.
The arrival of Díaz to Barça excites the Barça fans. He is a middle-aged football player with a lot of potential who could become one of the team’s stars in the coming years.
