Liverpool star has 'no intention' to renew deal amid transfer interest
Diaz has 'no intention' of extending his stay at Anfield
Diaz's future at Liverpool has been uncertain for a while now, and interest from Barcelona and the Saudi Pro League only complicates matters.
The Colombian remains on the same terms he agreed when he swapped Porto for Merseyside in 2022 and doesn't find himself among the club's top earners.

The electric forward's desire for an increased wage is no secret, but a report from Sport Witness has now claimed that he has 'no intention' of renewing his contract with Liverpool whilst a move to Barcelona remains a possibility.
Talks over a new deal have been reported for a while and no progress seems to have been made, so it may be the case that Diaz's head has already been turned by the La Liga champions.
Is Diaz to Barca possible?
Although there is plenty of uncertainty surrounding Diaz's current Anfield deal, he is actually under contract with the Premier League Champions until 2027, so the Reds are under very little pressure to sell this summer.

As such, a reported asking price of around €70-80 million has been set and this could be a stumbling block for Barca.
Liverpool look set to have one of the biggest summers in the club's history. Jeremie Frimpong has already arrived and deals for Milos Kerkez and Florian Wirtz look like real possibilities.
The Reds' big spend on incomings could encourage them to cut Barcelona a deal for Diaz, but the club are by no means desperate to offload the Colombian and any deal will likely be for a sizeable fee.
If Diaz truly is a top priority for Barca it seems likely a deal could be agreed this summer, but it doesn't feel like the Colombian's time at Anfield is done for definite just yet.
