This week, Manchester City’s brief connection to a deal for Liverpool star Luis Diaz who is anticipated to flourish under Arne Slot caused quite a stir. Although Diaz and Barcelona have been linked all summer, rumours that Man City intended to sign the winger to replace Julian Alvarez truly rocked the boat.
Thankfully, the allegations were quickly shown to be untrue, thus Diaz won’t be moving from Liverpool to their league rivals. That Diaz will stay at Liverpool for the time being, meanwhile, may not satisfy all Merseysiders.
With just over two weeks left in the transfer window, Liverpool has not added a single player during the Slot era.
Luis Diaz reaches agreement to join Manchester City, move ruled out
Liverpool’s attacking staple Luis Diaz and Manchester City have reached a five-year contract, but the move is officially out of the question. Manchester City is eager to hire Luis Diaz, and they have worked out a personal contract with the Liverpool player, according to El Chiringuito TV. It will cost €70 million, and Pep Guardiola’s team is prepared to pay it.
Once he joined the Reds in the winter of 2022, having established himself at FC Porto, Diaz has only become more successful. Based on reports, Liverpool is reportedly seeking an improvement on the left side. The Reds want to trade for Diaz in order to acquire Anthony Gordon of Newcastle United. Gordon recently returned from his Copa America final, and the Reds are willing to let go of the South American forward.
