Just now, according to the news brought by the Spanish media Mundo Deportivo. Barcelona's plan to recruit forwards this summer has reversed. When the team is sure to miss Nico Williams. It was thought that the transfer of the Red and Blue Army would stop here, but unexpectedly they chose another target. Yes, he is Luis Dias, who is currently playing for Liverpool.

It is reported that in the case of obstacles in the purchase of Nico Williams, Barcelona's top management regards the Colombian striker as the number one alternative for reinforcement this summer. In the eyes of the top management, Luis Dias is very suitable to be the team's starting winger at this stage. And the economic cost of signing him is also within the team's acceptable range. At present, they have made preliminary contacts with Liverpool. Liverpool's attitude is very firm and does not accept any form of price-cutting negotiations. If Barcelona wants to sign the player, the only way Liverpool will accept is that Barcelona pays more than 70 million transfer fees, otherwise no talk.

In other words, signing Dias is very simple, and there is no need for the two sides to engage in the so-called negotiation tug-of-war. Barcelona just needs to give enough money, which is still acceptable to the Red and Blue Army. After all, they have a sufficient transfer budget at present, and the team itself has more than 40 million euros of available funds. In addition, the team has just reached an agreement with the team sponsor to transfer 10% of the shares of Barcelona Vision, and the team has received another 40 million euros in revenue. In this way, Barcelona has a transfer budget of more than 80 million euros, and it is no problem to sign Dias for about 70 million euros.

Luis Dias is 27 years old. Last season, he played 51 games for Liverpool in various competitions, scored 13 goals and sent 5 assists. For a winger, such data is already very good. For Barcelona, although they missed Nico, if they can sign the Colombian star, the team's front trident next season will still be very luxurious. It is very helpful for both immediate combat effectiveness and the improvement of the depth of the wing.

It is worth mentioning that Luis Dias himself is very interested in joining Barcelona because the player is not satisfied with his current situation. First of all, after Klopp leaves the team, it is still difficult to say what Luis Diaz's position will be in the team next season. The player himself does not think that Liverpool will maintain its competitiveness in the future, and perhaps leaving is a good choice. At the same time, there is a more realistic reason, that is, his salary treatment in Liverpool is too poor.

For a star with an official value of 75 million euros on Transfermarkt, it is indeed a bit unreasonable to only receive a salary of less than 2 million euros before tax in Liverpool. If he can transfer to other giants this summer, Luis Diaz can easily get an annual salary of 5 or 6 million euros. This is much higher than the income in Liverpool, which is also an important reason why the player wants to leave the team. At present, Barcelona has negotiated with the player's agent team, and the two sides are negotiating a personal agreement. At the same time, Barcelona is also preparing to make the first round of offers to Liverpool. The Red and Blue Army is still trying to lower the price based on this deal, but according to Mundo Deportivo, the final transaction price will not be less than 70 million euros, because Liverpool's attitude is very firm.

To some extent, being able to sign a star with a transfer value of 75 million euros for a fee of about 70 million euros is already a great value. It is also acceptable for Barcelona to use up its financial budget to sign Luis Dias in the last deal of this summer, which will greatly improve the team's overall strength in the front line. Especially when Real Madrid's paper lineup has ushered in a huge improvement, Barcelona must also strengthen the team in order to ensure competitiveness. So in your opinion, is it appropriate to sign Luis Dias for 70 million euros?
