When Luis Diaz arrived at Liverpool in January 2022, his smile lit up the training ground.

He often frustrated with end product sometimes a problem but he could be lethal as he showed with a hat-trick against Bayer Leverkusen in November and a brace against Manchester United at Old Trafford in September.

Now Liverpool have already agreed a £79m deal to bring in Hugo Ekitike and he is finding his feet on the summer tour out in Asia, which Diaz has just departed.



That is why Liverpool remain on red alert when it comes to Alexander Isak.

Of course, they also have Cody Gakpo on the left and teenage sensation Rio Ngumoha, even at just 16, is starting to push.

How much should Liverpool pay for Alexander Isak?

Yet if they could land Isak in the coming weeks, even if it will take a British transfer record offer and the Magpies relenting, Slot will believe he will have a much more fluid forward line as well as a lethal one.

They know Ekitike is a forward of promise while Isak is a striker who has proven himself in the Premier League.

Yet interchanging them while having options on the left and right (many believe Jeremie Frimpong is more back-up to Mo Salah than a threat to Conor Bradley at right-back), the Reds are building a new-look front line that is more flexible than the previous one.

Why are Liverpool sanctioning Diaz’s sale is another question when he too can be flexible in his positioning?
