- Diaz nearing Liverpool exit
- Reds backed to move for Madrid star
- Also targeting Newcastle’s Isak
According to Marca, via Sport Witness, Liverpool are not ruling out making a move for Madrid winger Rodrygo after Diaz agreed to join Bayern. The report adds that it is ‘increasingly likely’ that Arne Slot’s side make advances to sign the البرازيل international but other players could be involved in negotiations.
After Liverpool sold Trent Alexander-Arnold to Madrid, the report adds that the two teams could negotiate for Rodrygo to head to Anfield but Reds centre-back Ibrahima Konate could go the other way – with his contract set to expire next summer. This comes at a time when the Merseyside outfit are keen on recruiting Newcastle متحد striker Alexander Isak as their extraordinary summer spending looks set to continue.
Rodrygo, 24, is said to be earning up to €10 million net per year, which isu0026nbsp;putting off teams such as Chelsea, among others. The Brazilian, who has scored 68 goals and added 51 assists in 270 gamesu0026nbsp;for Los Blancos to date, may struggle for game time next term but his wage demands could scupper a move elsewhere.
With Xabi Alonso’s side returning to pre-season training next week, Rodrygo is said to still be waiting to sort out his Madrid future. He could, however, hold talks with the club once he returns to training, so a Los Blancos stay may not be ruled out.
