Liverpool’s forward line revamp took another turn on Sunday as Luis Diaz agreed a move to Bayern Munich.

The Reds had publicly been adamant that Diaz would not be sold this summer, but the Colombian had been determined to make his exit.

As a result, the saga was only ever likely to end one way, and though Liverpool made sure they collected a big profit on Diaz, they will need to replace him.

A key player for Arne Slot last season, the 28-year-old started 28 Premier League matches, contributing 13 goals and five assists.

Slot still has options.

However, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, the Reds are now expected to enter the transfer market to sign a new player after letting Diaz leave.

Diaz will not be an especially easy player to replace in the Liverpool squad.

Having failed to convince Diaz to stay, the journalist claimed Liverpool are now set to ‘go big’ on a bid for Alexander Isak.

“I expect Liverpool to go very big, very strong for Alexander Isak,” he said.

Isak wants to go to Liverpool and now it depends on the clubs.

After selling Luis Diaz and with the plan to sell Federico Chiesa and Darwin Nunez, I expect Liverpool to go very big for Isak.

However, given the amount Isak is going to cost to get out of Newcastle, it seems unlikely that Liverpool will sign a left winger as well this summer.

Instead, it feels more probable that Slot will play with four up front for Liverpool, with Hugo Ekitike, Gakpo and maybe even Ngumoha seen as the left sided options.

Of course, it is not out of the question in this crazy summer that the Reds try to bring in another big forward as well.

If Newcastle cannot be persuaded to part with Isak, then Liverpool will have to pivot and bring someone else in too.
