Just like last summer, Barcelona strives for one signing of a big money in 2025, and the position that is focused is left. Sports director Deco believes that there is a clear lack of depth outside of Raphinha, who has been a striking performer for the Catalans, despite the fact that he called the right wing his preferred position.
Deco has made it clear that Luis Diaz is his preferred candidate to strengthen Barcelona on the left wing, despite the fact that the Colombians have had a bad season in terms of goal-pit and this is that Liverpool scored freely as the best team in the Premier League.
Deco believes that Diaz is available this summer, and therefore an agreement with Liverpool will be sought during the transfer window, as reported by Sport.
According to the report, Liverpool would consider selling Diaz, but they would not be willing to do this for a fee less than € 70-75 million and for Barcelona, this would also mean that they have to free up € 30 million in salary space because they are under extra control because of their well-documented financial problems.
Barcelona officials consider this feasible, given that there are a number of players who can be sold in the summer. The will of Andreas Christensen, Alex Valle and Eric Garcia are among the players who can be moved to generate money, while there is still a big desire to get rid of Ansu Fati, who rejects a move during the winter transfer window.
The signing of Diaz would require an important edition, and given his performance for Liverpool this season, it would not be too logical to focus this. He is simply not worth € 70-75 million, and especially with the terrible financial situation of the club.
