According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Al Nassr have identified Luis Diaz as a key target ahead of the summer transfer window as the Saudi club looks to reignite their ambitious project.

The 28-year-old Colombian winger, currently with Liverpool, is among the club's top priorities alongside defender Hancko, with a potential offer in the region of £70-80 million expected.

Barcelona are also monitoring him closely, but their pursuit is constrained by significant financial limitations. The Spanish giants face a hefty wage bill estimated between €400 million and €500 million, restricting their spending to a fraction of savings or incoming transfer fees.

As a result, any move for Diaz depends heavily on Liverpool's valuation and willingness to negotiate. But his recent form has only increased his market value.

His contributions were instrumental in helping Liverpool secure the Premier League title, further cementing his reputation as a high-quality asset.

With interest from both Al Nassr and Barcelona heating up, the summer promises to be a decisive period for the player's future. Liverpool will likely seek a significant fee for the winger, who remains a coveted figure amid competing bids from Europe and beyond.
