Liverpool Expect Key Forward to Start Pre-season Tomorrow Amid Exit Rumours

As reported by Mundo Deportivo, Luis Díaz has returned to England and is set to begin pre-season training with Liverpool on Tuesday. This development comes amid growing transfer speculation linking him to Barcelona as their prime summer target.

His return has caught the attention of several clubs, especially Barcelona, who have been actively pursuing the Colombian winger in hopes of bringing him to Camp Nou.

Liverpool, meanwhile, are waiting to see what Díaz decides regarding his future. The club understands his aspiration to play for Barcelona and is open to discussing a transfer, should he formally request it.

However, the situation at Liverpool has been affected by the unfortunate injury to Diogo Jota, which has created a more cautious environment around potential departures. As a result, Díaz is carefully considering when it would be best to make his decision.

He is not in a hurry and wants to ensure that any move he makes is timed wisely. While he understands the importance of acting promptly, he also wants to avoid rushing into a decision that he might regret later.

From Barcelona’s perspective, Díaz has long been at the top of Deco’s list to strengthen the left flank. Their determination to sign him increased after Nico Williams opted to remain with Athletic Club.

Negotiations between Barcelona and Díaz’s representative have been ongoing, and notably, the agent has not demanded contractual assurances such as immediate registration or release clauses tied to registration delays.

Barcelona remains optimistic about registering Díaz before the transfer window closes, a factor that has kept the dialogue with his camp constructive and hopeful.

Despite this progress, a new twist has emerged. Recent reports indicate that Díaz has already reached a personal agreement with Bayern Munich. The Bundesliga champions are eager to bring him to the Allianz Arena, and Díaz is reportedly open to the move.

That said, nothing has been finalised yet. Until a deal is officially completed, both Barcelona and Bayern Munich remain in the running for Díaz’s signature, setting the stage for what could become one of the summer’s major transfer stories.
