Report: Liverpool Now Eyeing Surprise Move for “Simply Unbelievable” Real Madrid Forward
Liverpool might be on the verge of completing a major deal for Real Madrid star Brahim Diaz, as reported by sources in Spain.
The midfielder is reportedly unhappy with his limited first-team opportunities at the Santiago Bernabeu, sparking speculation about his future.
The Reds have been outstanding across all competitions this season, currently leading both the Premier League and Champions League tables.
They have also reached the League Cup semi-finals, where they will aim to overturn a deficit against Tottenham Hotspur. Despite their success, Liverpool may still be looking to strengthen their squad, with Diaz potentially on their radar.
According to Fichajes, Diaz’s struggles to secure a regular place in Carlo Ancelotti’s side have attracted interest from European clubs. While his talent is undeniable, the Spaniard faces stiff competition from the likes of Jude Bellingham, Federico Valverde, and Eduardo Camavinga in Madrid’s midfield.

The situation has caught the attention of several clubs willing to offer Brahim Diaz a more prominent role, with Liverpool among the interested parties.
The Reds have been keeping tabs on the former Manchester City star for several months. With reports suggesting that Mohamed Salah is “likely” to leave the club at the end of the season, manager Arne Slot is keen to bring in a skilful and creative winger to maintain balance in the squad.
Diaz appears to be an ideal candidate, having been described as “simply unbelievable.” His versatility, demonstrated by his ability to play in central areas during his time in Milan, adds to his appeal.
A potential move to Anfield, where he could secure regular first-team football, may prove “irresistible” to the Moroccan international.
Having joined Real Madrid from Manchester City midway through the 2018-19 season for a fee of approximately £22 million, Diaz spent three seasons on loan at AC Milan.
Despite his talent, he has struggled for game time this season, managing only two goals in 23 appearances, with just 10 of those being starts.
Although Diaz is part of one of the most promising young midfield contingents in recent memory, this has worked against him in securing consistent minutes.
For Liverpool, who are in need of reinforcements both on the right flank and in central positions, Slot might find it difficult to identify many better options than Diaz.
