Content: After Barcelona missed out on Athletic Bilbao's Nico, Colombian forward Luis Díaz has emerged as the top target in the Catalan club's transfer plans.
In reality, negotiations between Barcelona and Díaz's entourage have become increasingly frequent and intensive over the past few days, with multiple rounds of in-depth discussions on the transfer matters.
Relevant reports indicate that Barcelona is clear about Díaz's inner thoughts. The forward intends to submit a transfer request to his current club, Liverpool, but he does not plan to act immediately. This is because Liverpool's entire staff and fans are still immersed in great grief and shock over the unfortunate death of Diogo Jota, and Díaz does not want to add more troubles to the club during this special and sensitive period.
It is reported that Luis Díaz is currently on vacation and plans to return to Liverpool soon, when he will assess the best time to make his transfer request. He is in no hurry, but also does not want to miss the opportunity to move.
In terms of specific details of the transfer negotiations, Díaz's agent has shown full trust in Barcelona and has not put forward any harsh clauses related to the player's registration to the club. For example, there is no demand for mandatory registration of Díaz, nor has there been a condition that the transfer agreement would be terminated if registration cannot be completed. Díaz's team has chosen to believe that Barcelona is capable of properly resolving the relevant registration issues before the summer transfer window closes.
Díaz's agent has told Barcelona that there is another major advantage in the transfer—Liverpool currently needs to sell players to offset their huge investments.
