Liverpool are reportedly ready to offer £42 million for Brahim Diaz, Real Madrid’s attacking midfielder, as noted by Fichajes. Under new manager Arne Slot, Liverpool are aiming to enhance their squad by acquiring both attacking and defensive reinforcements to compete for trophies next season.
Diaz has been targeted as a key player to boost Liverpool’s attack. Following a significant loan period at AC Milan, Diaz rejoined Real Madrid and signed a new three-year contract last summer. In the 2023-24 season, the Morocco international featured in 44 matches for Real Madrid across all competitions, providing nine assists and netting 12 goals for the La Liga and Champions League champions.
Liverpool are seeking a dynamic attacker to invigorate Slot’s team at Anfield, and Diaz fits this role well. His strong performances have drawn interest from several clubs looking to secure him from Real Madrid. Despite his current contract, Liverpool are actively considering pursuing him.
With the arrival of Endrick and Kylian Mbappe at Real Madrid potentially reducing Diaz’s playing time, he might contemplate a move away from the Spanish club. Liverpool, needing a versatile attacker like Diaz, view him as a perfect addition. The former Manchester City player’s ability to play on the wings, as a number 10, or even as a forward would introduce a new element to Liverpool’s attack. His speed, creativity, and knack for creating and scoring goals make him a valuable target for the Reds.
