Luis Diaz could be among the casualties of the post-Klopp era at Anfield, reports suggest. If Liverpool manages to convince Saudi-linked Mohammed Salah to stay, the Premier League leaders will sell Diaz.

As things stand, convincing Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and captain Virgil van Dijk remain priorities for Liverpool. In order to make hefty offers that can make the trio stay, the Reds are willing to sell other members of the squad and Colombian Diaz is on that list.

Money is the only concern and Liverpool will ink a deal with any club that is willing to meet its demands, The Goal said in a report on Friday. Multiple La Liga clubs are interested in bringing the 27-year-old on board, the report added.

Luis Diaz was in the news recently after his parents were abducted and released by extremists back in his homeland. He moved to the English club from FC Porto in January 2022. The winger found the net 21 times for Liverpool from 82 appearances but has struggled with injuries.

With 60 points after 26 rounds, Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool lead Manchester City by 1 point and third-placed Arsenal by 2. Liverpool have a lengthy injury list and Klopp was forced to field a young team in their 3-0 win over Championship side Southampton on Wednesday, with 18-year-olds Jayden Danns and Lewis Koumas scoring their first goals for the senior team.

Klopp compared the attention the teenagers were getting to Luke Littler, who made headlines last month as the youngest player to reach the final of the World Darts Championship
