Liverpool has positioned itself as one of the teams that has shown interest in signing the 24-year-old Brazilian left winger, Rodrygo Goes, currently playing for Real Madrid and who rumors place outside the merengue team. This, after seeing how little the player from Osasco counted for Xabi Alonso in the FIFA Club World Cup 2025.
Now, if the 'Red' team —as has been reported, for example, by the newspaper AS— fully launches for the incorporation of Rodrygo, that, curiously, could be a reason for attention for FC Barcelona. The reason? The possible arrival of the 'canarinho' left winger would give good reasons, both economically and sportingly, for the 'Reds' to consider making their departure conditions more flexible for a striker that interests Barça: Luis Díaz.
And yes, if those from Anfield want to make an offer for Goes, they must present a financially very attractive proposal to the whites. Specifically, in Chamartín they would not expect less than €80M for the former Santos player. An investment that would represent a significant outlay for a team that has already spent a total of 216.9 million euros this summer:
- Florian Wirtz - 130 million euros
- Jeremie Frimpong - 40 million euros
- Milos Kerkez - 46.9 million euros
And it has barely generated income from sales: €63.3M. They have parted ways with Jarell Quansah (€35M), Caoimhín Kelleher (€14.8M), Trent Alexander-Arnold (€10M) and Nathaniel Phillips (€3.5M).
With that scenario in mind, undeniably Liverpool could consider the idea of listening to offers for Luis Díaz, a player for whom they would predictably try to get between 60 and 80 'kilos', and whose future is surrounded by uncertainty: Will he renew? Will he stay without extending his contract? Will he be transferred this summer? In this context, Barcelona could seriously consider making an offer, as long as the English team ventures to let the Colombian go.
Rodrygo and the domino effect on the 'Red' left wing
From the sporting level, the arrival of Rodrygo would directly affect the role of 'Lucho' in the 'Red' team. Although Goes can perform as a right winger and even in more central areas, it has been said that the striker is looking for a project that allows him to see full-time minutes as a left winger, the position in which he exploded at Santos and in which he has been best seen.
Then, the '11' merengue could end up taking that place on the left wing, which would be 'overbooked' with pieces. It must also be considered that the Dutchman Cody Gakpo can also play on that wing.
Will Luis Díaz leave Anfield this summer?
Will Liverpool let Luis Díaz leave this summer market? At the moment, nothing is clear in this case. If the 'Reds' are open to selling 'Lucho', it will be necessary to weigh whether their economic pretensions fit what Barcelona could be willing to offer.
There is talk of a high-level player, but whose age (28 years) —although there is talk of a striker in his footballing prime— could play against him, understanding that the Colombian is not the only option that the club is considering to reinforce the left wing. In that list, in addition to Marcus Rashford, even Rodrygo himself has been mentioned as an option for the culé forward. Would it be viable for the Barcelona team to bet on the Brazilian?
