FC Barcelona has Luis Díaz on its radar as one of the top priorities for the upcoming season. The sports management, led by Deco, is evaluating the financial possibilities to pursue the signing of the Colombian winger, aware that his contractual situation and desire to wear the Blaugrana shirt could facilitate the operation.

At 28 years old, Díaz fits perfectly into the profile sought by Barcelona to enhance its attack. His ability to overrun, versatility, and football maturity make him an attractive target. However, the main obstacle lies in the financial aspect. The club must create enough leeway within the salary 'fair play' to afford an investment that could reach around 70-75 million euros, implying the release of at least 30 million from its wage bill.

Contact has already been initiated to persuade the Colombian

Deco has already begun contacts with the player's environment, who has shown interest in moving to the Camp Nou. His contract with Liverpool runs until 2027, giving an advantage over other more complicated targets like Alexander Isak, tied to Newcastle until 2028, with a transfer fee potentially exceeding 120 million euros.

To make the operation viable, Barcelona is evaluating the possibility of making a significant sale in the upcoming summer market. According to Sport, midfield players could be deemed dispensable, except for Pedri, deemed untouchable by the club. In defense, players like Eric García, Christensen, or even Araujo could come into play if the right offer arises.

Barcelona continues to balance its books with the hope of reinforcing its squad with the talented Colombian forward. Díaz's dream of wearing the Blaugrana jersey could come true if the financial pieces fall into place.
