Luis Diaz has revealed talks over a Liverpool contract renewal are imminent after declaring his desire to stay at the club.

Signed from Porto for an initial fee of £37.5 million in January 2022, Diaz quickly became a fan-favourite on Merseyside but was linked with an exit last summer amid reported interest from Barcelona.

Ultimately the Colombia international stayed put and, in return, has played a significant role in Liverpool’s Premier League title triumph.

His 17 goals across all competitions means it is his most productive campaign to date for the Reds and his 13 in the league is a total only bettered by Mohamed Salah (28) in the entire squad.

Diaz has cemented himself as a key player under Arne Slot this season.

In total, he has made 48 appearances so far as his ability to play out wide or down the middle has worked in his favour.

Clearly enjoying his time at Anfield, the 28-year-old is keen to extend his stay.

However, whilst Diaz has revealed talks over a contract renewal are scheduled, he admits his future is reliant on the club’s plans.

“We’ll be talking about it, we’ll talk about it (about the renewal).

Very calm, I’m happy and enjoying the Premier League.”
