The two strikers of Liverpool, Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz were eliminated from the list in the friendly match against AC Milan this Saturday. The fact that both Diaz and Nunez did not participate, increasing the speculation that they could leave Anfield in the transfer window this summer.
Coach Arne Slot announced the list of 22 players attending the first friendly match in Liverpool's Asian tour against AC Milan. Rookie Florian Wirtz was filled with the starting line -up, along with familiar pillars like Alisson, Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk. However, both Nunez and Diaz were completely absent.
This raises doubts about the future of these two players. After the match, coach Slot confirmed: “Yes, Luis Diaz was eliminated from today's match due to many rumors about his future.”
Bayern Munich had previously sent the first offer worth 59 million pounds to recruit Diaz, but was rejected by Liverpool, although the Colombian player expressed his desire to leave the Merseyside team. According to The Athletic, the Bavaria team has not given up this deal, although they have not made any improvement offer.
As for Darwin Nunez, he had just scored a hat-trick in a friendly match with Stoke City last week, but was still expected to leave the Premier League champions this summer. Napoli and Alhilal are two teams following the Uruguayan striker.
The fact that both Nunez and Diaz did not participate in the team against AC Milan is considered a signal that Liverpool is ready for both to leave. The proceeds from these deals can be used to pursue their top transfer goals: Alexander Isak from Newcastle United.
Choi Chu is screaming the Swedish star price up to £ 150 million. These are a huge amount of money that Liverpool needs to sell both Diaz and Nunez to be able to balance the book.
But Isak may not be Liverpool's last deal in the summer of 2025. According to Journalist Sacha Tavolieri, Liverpool is closely watching the young talent Malick Fofana of Lyon and Crystal Palace's Marc Guihi.
