Luis Díaz is on his way to confirm his continuity as a Liverpool player of England. The attacker Guajiro had a spectacular end of the season and changed things in Anfield.
After several weeks waiting for an answer, the leadership contacted him to warn him that they are interested in sitting down to negotiate renewal.
At the end of last year it was taken for granted in the transferable list, but its performance in April modified the plans.
“Luis Díaz will hold conversations with Liverpool at the end of the season On the extension of his contract, ”the English media reported.
Lucho has a contract with Liverpool until 2027, but has been looking for a salary improvement for several months that is in line with what contributes to goals, assists and number of minutes played.
Right now the salary of the Guajiro is at about 3.2 million euros per season, less than what players like Federico Chiesa or Kostas Tsimikas earn.
In case of signing, Díaz will not be even close to what the team’s great referents win, but it will become one of the best paid.
Divided opinions
Sky Sports has included this information as one of the news of the week, after Liverpool was crowned champion of the Premier League with four dates in advance.
“Liverpool is obviously anxious to avoid another long saga of signings after what happened this season. Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk have been tied, but it seems that Trent Alexander-Arnold will be the one who marks. Lesson learned“The journalist analyzed.
If Luis Díaz does not renew his contract, next year he could leave with a much lower price and that is something that the leadership does not want it to happen.
“Keep Diaz has obvious advantages. A versatile striker, capable of playing in any position in a fluid front and contributes 17 goals in 26 league games as a starter, It deserves a new contract, especially to dissuade possible suitors“Hunter completed.
“Being sincere, for most of this season, until Christmas, I planned to sell Diaz in summer. For his way of play I think it could be other players who leave to instead of Díaz”Carragher added.
The only certain thing is that Lucho will receive a well -deserved rest and end the season with less minutes because the title is already in the pocket. At the end of May the long -awaited conversation could come in which its future could be sentenced long before the signing window.
