SHOCKING NEWS: Fans and players left in shock after heartbreaking Luis Diaz news is confirmed this morning. 💔 This is absolutely devastating😢

Liverpool is actively looking for a new forward to spearhead their attack next season. Despite manager Arne Slot having a squad full of attacking talent and several options in the forward position, the club is still contemplating adding another striker.

On Sunday, the Premier League leaders triumphed over Wolves at Anfield, with goals from Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah, increasing their lead at the top of the table to seven points. However, one of these goal scorers might depart in the summer if Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak moves to Liverpool.

As reported by Sport, Liverpool could consider selling Colombian forward Diaz if they succeed in signing Isak from Newcastle. The Swedish international has made a significant impression on the Reds, who are keen to strengthen their attack with his addition.

According to Caught Offside, Liverpool would need to spend between €150-€170 million to bring Isak from Newcastle. This would require Slot’s team to surpass their current transfer record to complete the transfer.

Could Liverpool part ways with Luis Diaz?

To finance the deal, Liverpool is considering selling Diaz, which could provide the financial resources necessary for such a major investment. Diaz played a pivotal role in the victory over Wolves, scoring the opening goal and winning the penalty that led to Salah’s goal.

Sport mentions that Isak has a verbal agreement with Newcastle that allows him to leave if an offer above €100 million is received. This has attracted interest from Arsenal, Chelsea, and Liverpool, given his impressive form and potential for further growth.

With several top Premier League clubs looking for attacking reinforcements this summer, the competition for Isak’s signature is expected to be intense.
