Barcelona has had Liverpool -wing player Luis Diaz near or at the top of their shortlist to strengthen the last two seasons in the attack. The Colombian winger is apparently fond of moving to Catalonia, but seems almost destined to miss one.
Diaz has publicly confirmed that he is negotiating with other clubs, but Liverpool claims that he is not for sale and the reported asking price is € 80-85 million. Barcelona focused their attention on Nico Williams as a result, but were then forced to consider another movement for Diaz after missing him. He is cited as their top goal, but Barcelona should negotiate his price up to around € 60 million.
On Thursday it was reported that manager Hansi Flick gave the green light for a movement for Marcus Rashford of Manchester United. It is cited as the sliced ​​alternative for several months and is apparently desperate to make the switch to Barcelona. According to Florian Plettenberg, Barcelona now gives priority to Rashford as their number one target and are willing to go 'all-in'.
United would like to go further from the 27-year-old attacker and have set an asking price of € 45 million for Rashford. What is not yet clear is whether Barcelona is willing to pay for that. Rashford has announced in Barcelona that he is willing to do a large wage reduction, but much of the report from Spain is that the Blaugrana would rather sign him on loan with an option to buy.
The unknown is Bayern Munich. The Bavarian Giants also compete for Diaz, but if they miss, Rashford is also on their shortlist. They have an increased power power, and if they can convince Rashford to make the move instead of waiting for Barcelona, ​​the deal can become complicated for the Catalan giants.
