Liverpool winger Luis Diaz has responded to speculation linking him with a summer move to clubs including Barcelona.

The 27-year-old joined the Reds from Porto for an initial £37.5m in January 2022 and featured regularly under former manager Jurgen Klopp.

Diaz has made a total of 98 appearances for Liverpool in all competitions, scoring 24 goals and providing 13 assists, with 13 goals and five assists recorded in 51 outings last season.

Although Diaz still has three years remaining on his contract at Anfield, there has been plenty of speculation about his future on Merseyside amid reported interest from Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and clubs in Saudi Arabia.

Barcelona's new head coach Hansi Flick is believed to be exploring the possibility of reinforcing his attack at Camp Nou, while PSG are in the market to sign a replacement for Kylian Mbappe, who has agreed to join Real Madrid.

Diaz "very happy" at Liverpool amid Barca, PSG links

A recent report claims that Liverpool have made it clear to interested suitors that Diaz will not be allowed to leave the club this summer unless their €75m (£63.8m) asking price is met.

Diaz has since responded to the rumours surrounding his future and has made it clear where he wishes to play in the coming years.

Speaking to Colombian news outlet Gol Caracol, Diaz said: "I am very happy there in Liverpool, it is a great team and club. I always wanted to play there, so I am very happy and calm.

"I'm not thinking about anything else, I'm thinking about the Colombian national team, which is where we are."

Diaz is currently away on international duty with Colombia ahead of representing his nation at the 2024 Copa America held in the USA.

The winger was speaking after playing in Colombia's comfortable 5-1 friendly victory over the Stars and Stripes, and he added: "We are truly happy, calm because we are reaping good things, we are building a family more than a team and that is key for what is to come, which is a very important competition.

"Always believers, we know the players and coaching staff we have, we are 100% believers and we are going to fight to give them that victory."

Diaz will hope to impress Liverpool's new head coach Arne Slot during his time at the Copa America as he bids to cement his place as a first-team regular at Anfield in the 2024-25 season.

Liverpool's No.7 is not the only Reds player who has been linked with a possible exit this summer, as both Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez have allegedly attracted interest from the Saudi Pro League and Barcelona respectively. body check tags ::
