Luis Diaz has been at the centre of attention for most of the summer transfer window.

The Liverpool attacker is entering the final two years of his deal, and at the moment, the Anfield outfit are showing no signs of wanting to extend his stay.

However, as per a report from Spanish outlet SPORT, it seems like Hansi Flick is ready to ‘throw in the towel.’

The report outlines that Barca are not willing to spend anywhere near the €80million (£69million) that Liverpool would demand for his sale.

Although Diaz only has two years left on his current deal, there’s still plenty more that he can give Liverpool throughout the next season or so.

At the moment, it’s anyone’s guess what could happen, but with the way things have panned out thus far, keeping Diaz among the Anfield ranks should be a top priority for Liverpool this summer.
