Luis Diaz is reportedly being targeted by PSG ahead of the summer transfer window.
Foot Mercato’s Santi Aouna reports (as relayed on X by Hadrien Grenier) that the French outfit has made contact with the Colombian’s agent.
“Qatar’s priority to strengthen PSG’s attack is Luis Diaz! Contact has even already been made with his agent.
“Considered a player with an impeccable state of mind who also knows how to defend, he ticks as many boxes as possible.
“However, the idea is not unanimous internally. Luis Campos, for example, is not thrilled: he favors younger players with greater room for improvement. Also, for the moment, Liverpool do not want to sell him.”
The former FC Porto star has been in terrific form for Liverpool this term, registering 16 goal contributions in 39 games (across all competitions) – six of those coming from his last seven Premier League games.

Could Klopp’s exit inspire an exodus?
The short answer is no.
As unpredictable as Liverpool’s future without Jurgen Klopp at the helm might be, FSG have made great pains to mitigate the risk with the appointment of Michael Edwards in particular.
The superb framework behind the scenes and the irrefutable reality of a world-class, young squad available for the next manager makes this an exciting project moving forward.
We’d hope that would be enough to convince the likes of Diaz and Co. not to jump ship at the earliest opportunity.
We’ll wait for the new manager, of course, but how could anyone say that the Ligue 1 side presents a more exciting environment to be in than Liverpool?
