The future of some Liverpool players is uncertain due to their contractual situation at Anfield.
Players such as Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk are in the final year of their contract at the club.
However, there is one more player who could leave Anfield for failing to reach an agreement with the club on a new contract.
According to the Spanish publication Antenna 2Liverpool face challenges in their attempts to extend the contract of winger Luis Díaz.
The report suggests that if a new deal cannot be reached, Diaz could prefer a move to Barcelona, although other top clubs such as Paris Saint-Germain and AC Milan are also closely monitoring his situation.
The Colombian is a crucial player for the Reds and his contribution in attack has been key for Arne Slot’s team this season.
He has contributed to the team reaching the top of the Premier League and Champions League table.
The report mentions that Liverpool value the player at around €80m (£66.2m/$83.5m), but signing him for this amount would not be possible for struggling Barcelona economical.
The player intends to join the La Liga giants but they would face obstacles in signing him from Liverpool.
The attacker has scored nine goals and provided three assists for the Premier League giants this season.
Díaz has secured the left wing position and is a sure starter there for Liverpool.
The Merseyside club would prefer to keep the player and should do everything in their power to keep him at Anfield for a long time.
As Salah enters the final years of his Premier League career, it is crucial for Slot’s team to keep players like Diaz, who are goalscorers and goal creators.
The Colombian international still has a long way to go in his career and can continue to improve his level as a player even more but it remains to be seen if it will be at Liverpool or elsewhere.
It has been suggested that Diaz’s team-mate Alexander-Arnold will leave the Premier League side in the near future, while Lyon attacking midfielder Rayan Cherki has been linked with a move to Anfield.
