FC Barcelona has set its sights on one of the most sought-after names in the current market. Luis Díaz is Deco and Hansi Flick's main target, as they consider him essential to revamp the wings of the attack. The Liverpool Colombian views the possibility of wearing the blaugrana jersey this very summer very favorably.
From the footballer's camp, it has been leaked that Díaz's priority is clear: he wants to play at Camp Nou. Although he has a contract renewal offer from the English club, he hasn't given a definitive answer yet. Everything will depend on whether Barça manages to reach a satisfactory financial agreement with Liverpool.

They've provided significant details about the progress of the talks. According to their sources, negotiations will be activated in the coming days after the signing of Joan García. At the Catalan club, they're optimistic: they believe the player's will could make the difference.
Luis Díaz is delighted with the idea of joining Barça, which has prompted the club to act decisively. At 28 years old, he believes this is the ideal moment to make the leap to a project like the culé one. To make it easier, Barça has already put a creative and aggressive offer on the table.
Barça has offered Liverpool a deal that includes two players from its current squad. These are Gerard Martín and Ferran Torres, whose departures would help balance the financial fair play. This proposal is accompanied by a financial part that doesn't exceed €60 million.
At Anfield, they value very positively the young and promising profile of Gerard Martín, a full-back with range and future. Ferran, meanwhile, is a versatile striker with international experience, who could fit perfectly into the scheme. Liverpool is now studying whether this deal makes up for the loss of one of its offensive pillars.

Luis Díaz backs Camp Nou
The Colombian winger has always shown sympathy for Barça and now it's clearer than ever. According to his camp, he's willing to reject Liverpool's renewal if the culé offer materializes. The player's intention is for the transfer to be completed before the end of the Euro Cup.
Barça values very positively his ability to beat defenders, his dribbling, and his defensive commitment. Flick has been clear with Deco: "Luis Díaz is my number one option to strengthen the left wing." The board, therefore, is working against the clock to satisfy its new coach.

The German coach is looking to expand the team's offensive options with an explosive and unbalancing player. Díaz would fit perfectly with Lamine Yamal on the other side, providing speed, verticality, and goals. In addition, it would allow other players like Raphinha or Ferran not to have to take on so much workload.
At Camp Nou, they believe this signing could make the difference in big matches. It's also seen as a key step in the team's offensive rebuild after an inconsistent season. That's why Deco and his team are going all in.
Time pressure and plan B
Although Díaz is the priority, Barça doesn't rule out activating other options if Liverpool remains firm on its price. The most favored name as an alternative is Marcus Rashford, who would also be willing to leave. However, both Flick and Deco are clear that Díaz is the ideal fit for the project.
The Catalan club has set a deadline to close the deal: before June 25. If it doesn't happen, they'll turn to other alternatives in the international market. For now, negotiations are ongoing and the excitement among fans grows every day.
