PSG, Barça: Luis Díaz has made a decision for his future

Two and a half years after his arrival from Porto for 50 million euros, Luis Díaz has established himself as one of the most sought-after wingers on the continent. A key starter for Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool last season (51 matches, 13 goals, 5 assists), the Colombian international has seen his market value climb again in recent weeks (he is now estimated at 75 million euros according to Transfermarkt).

Alongside a stunning James Rodriguez, the 27-year-old winger allowed Colombia to qualify for a Copa América final, a first since 2001 and the coronation of the generation of Óscar Córdoba, Iván Córdoba and Mario Yepes. Although the outcome was unfortunate this time (the Tricolor lost on penalties to Argentina), that did not prevent the Liverpool player from shining in the spotlight, while his name had already been associated, directly or indirectly, with Barça and PSG a little earlier.

A transfer is no longer on the agenda

But as the Liverpool Echo in his podcast this Saturday, the idea of ​​seeing Luis Diaz desert the banks of the Mersey this summer, has taken a hit. Today, the player wants to sign up for the long term at Liverpool (he is under contract until 2027), and believes more than ever in the Reds’ project, led by Arne Slot. This Saturday, the Colombian should even take part in the friendly match between Liverpool and Sevilla (1:30 p.m.), the last before the return of the Premier League in a week.

At the same time, the arrival of Dani Olmo at Barça has reduced the scope of action of the Catalan club, which had, in any case, made Nico Williams its priority at the winger position. For Paris, the door seems to have closed as well. Cited among the potential replacements for Kylian Mbappé in recent months, Luis Diaz has seen other names emerge, such as Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Nico Williams and more recently Jadon Sancho. The case is closed: Luis Diaz will be a Liverpool player this season.
