Barcelona are still on the hunt for a winger with whom Flick wants to reinforce the squad. Nico Williams' refusal to sign for Barcelona has led toLuis Diaz and Marcus Rashford once again being the two players the club is now targeting. They are playing both sides, aware of the difficulty of signing the Liverpool player. Rashford's is easier, as Manchester United want to get rid of him and he is desperate to sign for Barcelona.

Now it's Luis Diaz's turn. Liverpool return to training on Monday after the summer break. The script for this operation indicates that now is the time for the Colombian to make his move. The idea is for him to meet with Arne Slot to tell him that his intention is to leave Liverpool and for the English club to allow him to leave. It should be remembered that a few days ago the British club did not even want to listen to an offer from Bayern Munich for the striker. In Germany, it is claimed that the striker would have an agreement with the German club, something that is not known in Barcelona.

Liverpool's stance

It remains to be seen what Slot's position will be. It does not seem easy that he will easily agree to the departure of the Colombian. And this is something Barcelona are aware of. It will not be a simple and quick operation. His departure will take time and will depend on the power of persuasion of Luis Diaz when he communicates that he wishes to leave the club. And it will not be cheap. His price is around 80 million euros, and Barcelona are not exactly flush with 'fair play' to be able to bring in the player.

Rashford, easier

This circumstance makes Rashford's signing more affordable, especially if he can get Manchester United to accept a loan rather than a sale. If this were the case, the Blaugrana club could even consider signing both players. Everything will depend on the 'Fair Play' that can be generated in the coming weeks if a player leaves.

Two bands

Under these circumstances, Barcelona is still playing both sides with Diaz and Rashford. It wants to keep both operations open while waiting to see which signing it can make. It will not be quick because it depends on many factors. In the first instance, on this meeting that Luis Diaz must have with his coach.
