The Colombian star Luis Diaz ranks among the top wingers in the Premier League and has been a vital player for Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool. Proving to be one of the club’s top-notch signings, he has justified the €47 million price tag the English club paid for his signature in January 2022.
Díaz signed a five-year deal with Liverpool, and despite a staggering £100 million release clause in his contract and his status as a non-negotiable player, he has been attracting transfer interest. The South American standout has recently been linked with Paris Saint-Germain, viewed as a potential response to Kylian Mbappé’s departure.
Liverpool and PSG are deadlocked over a Luis Diaz deal
The Reds star, Luis Díaz, has been on Barcelona’s radar, with the club showing keen interest in bringing the 27-year-old winger to Spain. Furthermore, reports have emerged that another European giant, PSG, is pursuing Díaz as a potential replacement for Kylian Mbappé, set to leave Parc des Princes at the end of this season.
The Parisians are preparing for life after their French talisman, Kylian Mbappé, next season. According to Foot Mercato, Díaz is a priority for PSG to bolster their wings and fill the void left by Mbappé’s departure.
It was said that PSG views the Colombian international as the perfect replacement, despite already having a stacked attacking lineup with players like Ousmane Dembélé, Randal Kolo Muani, Gonçalo Ramos, Bradley Barcola, and Lee Kang-in. The addition of Díaz is considered a key move.
However, sources have confirmed that there have been no talks between the agent of the Liverpool player and the French champions, as PSG has set its sights on different targets for next season. Meanwhile, Liverpool has no intention of letting Luis Díaz leave
