And now, as per a report from Italian outlet La Gazzetta Dello Sport, Al-Nassr now have a bid worth around €85million (£71.6million) to table for Diaz this summer.

Rafael Leao has been surveyed recently by Liverpool, with the Portugal international the perfect player to fill the void left by Diaz’s potential departure.
The Portugal international is just 25 years old, and he still contributed the same number of goals as the Colombia international did last season.
