Liverpool will not let star player leave despite €50m verbal offer from Saudi club - Reports
Liverpool are not willing to sell forward Luis Diaz this summer despite receiving a €50 million bid from Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal, according to reports.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has claimed that the Colombian winger is very much in Reds boss Jurgen Klopp's plans despite interest from the Saudi Pro League.
Romano wrote on Twitter:
Journalist Paul Joyce told The Times earlier this week that the former FC Porto star has attracted interest from Al Hilal. However, the reporter claimed that no official bid had been submitted yet to the Merseyside outfit.
Joyce said (via Empire of the Kop):
He admitted that Liverpool were reluctant to sell the Colombia international and that Diaz is expected to feature in the club's pre-season tour.
The Reds secured Diaz's services in January 2022 from Porto for £37.5 million. The Colombian winger helped the club win the FA Cup, the English Super Cup, and the Carabao Cup.
Diaz has registered 47 appearances across all competitions for the Merseyside outfit, recording 11 goals and eight assists.
Liverpool midfielder Fabinho looks set to depart Anfield as a move to Al Ittihad is in the advanced stages, as Fabrizio Romano claimed recently.
The journalist claims that the Reds are in the market for another midfielder despite signing Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai this summer.
Romano reports that the Reds are interested in Southampton midfielder Romeo Lavia. He told GIVEMESPORT:
He also claimed that the Belgium international could attract interest from Arsenal as well. Romano added:
It remains to be seen who the Merseyside outfit will pursue to replace Fabinho in the midfield department.
