Diario Sport also add that next season, Diaz ‘would not’ be a part of Slot’s starting 11 should he stay at Anfield this season.

The Colombia international only has two years left on his contract with Liverpool, so the 2025-26 summer transfer window is the last time that the Reds will likely be able to get a decent fee for him, especially after the performances he put in last term.

Later on in the same report from Diario Sport, the Spanish outlet relays that although there was some ‘uncertainty’ regarding the transfer, ‘everything’ now indicates that a deal could be done by the end of June or early July at the latest.

Not only is this a significant U-turn regarding the Reds’ stance on Diaz, but it also demonstrates Liverpool’s eagerness to complete most of their business as soon as possible.
