Porto are reportedly willing to part ways with playmaker Luis Diaz for a fee in the region of £42m.

However, if speculation is to believed, there is an inevitability about the 24-year-old eventually making the move to the Premier League.
According to Colombian journalist Pipe Sierra, Chelsea are among the clubs who have been informed that Diaz could be available for a fee lower than his release clause.
Despite an option stating that £68m would be required to initiate discussions, Sierra says that Porto are willing to settle for £42m.
