Luis Diaz has been heavily linked with a move away from Liverpool this summer as part of Arne Slot’s plans to freshen up their attack ahead of next season. It seems Liverpool have already identified a young replacement for the Colombian and the price he could be available for.
Diaz has scored 15 times for the Reds this season and has played the most number of minutes as an attacker under Arne Slot, barring the talismanic Mohamed Salah.
However, the Colombian is 28, and is set to enter the final two years of his contract. This summer could be Liverpool’s last opportunity to get a premium fee from his sale.
The winger is attracting serious interest from Saudi Arabia, and the club have already received a bid for the winger from one of the Saudi Pro League clubs.
Can you name the team Liverpool signed these players from?

The Reds find Diaz’s replacement in Italy
Kenan Yildiz, 19, is one of the most exciting young wingers in European football and has a contract until 2029 with Serie A giants Juventus.
Liverpool have been linked with an interest in the winger, and he has emerged as a potential option for the next summer transfer window.
Several other Premier League sides and Bayern Munich are also interested in getting their hands on the teenage winger in the upcoming months.
Juventus do not want to sell, but according to Calciomercato.com, they will consider offers if a club table a large enough bid for a player who has scored eight times this season.
The Serie A giants will consider negotiating a transfer for Yildiz if a club table a bid in the region of £52m in the summer.
Whether Liverpool decide to test the waters for the winger in the upcoming window remains to be seen.
