Liverpool reject Barcelona approach over Luis Diaz transfer, tell them he is not for sale

Liverpool have rebuffed an approach from Barcelona to discuss signing Luis Diaz, telling the champions of La Liga he is not for sale. The 28-year-old Colombia international joined from Porto in January 2022 on a deal that runs until the summer of 2027 and, as things stand, there is little expectation of a fresh agreement. Advertisement It has led Diaz to be linked with leaving Anfield and Barcelona contacted their Premier League counterparts on Wednesday about recruiting him. But Liverpool's formal reply was unequivocal; the Catalan club and their sporting director Deco were immediately informed that no appetite exists to trade a squad member who head coach Arne Slot is planning with for the 2025-26 season. Diaz was of interest to Manchester City last summer and also has admirers in Saudi Arabia. Yet the recent pursuit of Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, 30, by Al Hilal helped Liverpool establish Diaz's market price. The winger played a key role in bringing a 20th English title to Merseyside and has so far given no indication of wanting to depart. Unless that or Liverpool's stance changes, the club would be happy to let Diaz see out his final 24 months. Liverpool's new-look hierarchy, led by sporting director Richard Hughes and Fenway Sports Group's chief executive of football Michael Edwards, has sought to address the contract issue — however progress has not materialised. At Diaz's age, their current preference would be to maximise his performance value — even if that means exiting as a free agent — unless Liverpool receive bids that enable them to land a replacement of similar or superior quality.

Foreign Buyers Are Fleeing the South Florida Condo Market

Foreign buyers have long powered South Florida's condo market, but many are now pulling out because of high interest rates, expensive prices and, more recently, restrictive immigration policies. The Miami Association of Realtors reports that home sales to foreign buyers dropped to 10 percent of all transactions in the region from August 2023 to July 2024, the lowest level since 2015 and a stark drop from 50 percent in 2018. The study polled nearly 2,400 real estate agents in South Florida's Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and Martin counties. Foreign buyers were defined as those who were not U.S. citizens and whose primary residence was abroad, as well as U.S. visa holders for at least six months and green card holders for less than two years. Most foreign buyers in South Florida come from Latin America, with that region accounting for nearly 60 percent of buyers last year. They've been attracted not just by Florida's year-round sun, but because real estate investments in the United States were considered safe from the prying hands of their home governments. After South Florida's housing bubble burst in 2007, international buyers flooded in to take advantage of reasonable prices and low interest rates. 'During the Great Recession, foreign buyers bailed out the South Florida condo market,' said Peter Zalewski, an independent condo analyst based in Miami. Covid-19 changed the calculus. South Florida became one of the nation's hottest and priciest markets when American buyers, desperate to escape pandemic restrictions, gobbled up the supply. Meanwhile, rising interest rates and a strong dollar drove down foreign demand. Foreign Buyers Step Back Foreign buyers have long dominiated in South Florida, but the their share of the market as measured in dollars has fallen to the lowest point since 2015. Year 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 Foreign buyer share 37% 29% 44% 50% 38% 32% 14% 17% 18% 10% Year Foreign buyer share 2024 2023 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 10% 18% 17% 14% 32% 38% 50% 44% 29% 37% Source: Miami Association of Realtors By The New York Times After the deadly 2021 collapse of the Champlain Towers South condo building in the Miami suburb of Surfside, Florida's legislature passed laws requiring condo owners to pay for costly renovations. Faced with expensive assessments, sellers flooded the market to record levels, data from Redfin shows. But this time, foreign buyers are unlikely to come to the rescue, as President Trump's immigration and tariff policies have rattled global markets. 'Not only are they still dealing with the currency issue, but add in the immigration policy and the disrespect,' Mr. Zalewski said. 'It's a real conundrum for condo sellers.'

Trump Wants His Presidential Library Set in Florida, Enticed by Free Land

Donald Trump is considering the campus of Florida Atlantic University for a presidential library, on a site where he has been offered free land, as planning begins for the MAGA mecca he eschewed during his first term. Trump and his advisers are planning a campaign to raise hundreds of millions of dollars for a library fund. One of the president's sons, Eric Trump, and one of his sons-in-law, Michael Boulos, recently established a nonprofit to support the library. More than $37 million from lawsuits involving ABC News and Meta Platforms, as well as tens of millions of leftover inauguration funds, are expected to fund construction of the complex, along with donors. Trump envisions turning a $400 million Boeing 747 jet—a gift from Qatar—into a tourist attraction at the library.
