Liverpool are weighing up options while questions over Luis Diaz’s future linger — and one name is quietly turning heads.
Luis Diaz’s future at Anfield is still uncertain, and there’s a chance he could move on this summer.
Barcelona and Al Nassr have been interested in him for some time, and now Bayern Munich have also joined the race.
So far, there hasn’t been much movement towards a contract extension, which leaves the door slightly open if a strong enough offer arrives this summer.
He has been an important figure for the Reds since arriving from Porto, adding directness and energy to the left wing.
Diaz’s work rate and versatility make him tough to replace, so Liverpool have started to quietly explore a few names in case things develop over the coming weeks.

The Algerian Winger catching Liverpool eye
According to O Jogo, one name under serious consideration is Anis Hadj Moussa — a 23-year-old Algerian winger who plays for Feyenoord and is valued at around €20 million.
Moussa is naturally a right winger but can play on the left too, offering Slot tactical flexibility out wide.
He made 44 appearances across all competitions last season, scoring 11 goals and providing 6 assists.
He also impressed in the Champions League, scoring against Manchester City and picking up key goals in big European matches.
Merseyside isn’t the only side interested in the Algerian winger.
Benfica and Nottingham Forest are also interested in him, and Benfica are the only club so far to have made a concrete enquiry.
Earlier reports suggest that Marseille and Sevilla have tracked him as well, but there have been no fresh moves yet.
With his connection to Slot from the Eredivisie, Liverpool could have an advantage if they decide to push ahead.
For now, nothing is advanced — but as uncertainty around Diaz continues, Liverpool seem ready to act if needed.

Sign Yildiz and move Salah to centre forward. Salah no longer has the pace to go past defenders or to get back to help our defence but he can still put the ball in the net. With Gakpo, Wirtz and Yildiz behind him there would be plenty of chances to score goals. The strikers we have been supposedly interested in are all way overpriced.
