Liverpool Eyeing Isak-Núñez Swap Deal
Liverpool is reportedly considering offering Darwin Núñez to Newcastle United in exchange for Alexander Isak in the upcoming summer transfer window. Reds manager Arne Slot is looking to bolster the striker position and sees Isak as a strong candidate, given his impressive performance in the Premier League.
Isak has netted 17 goals in 23 games this season, making him a desirable target for Liverpool. However, the Swede is under contract until 2028, potentially requiring a significant financial commitment to secure his services.
Barcelona Pursuing Luis Díaz
Meanwhile, Barcelona is reportedly planning to sign Liverpool winger Luis Díaz in the upcoming transfer window. The Catalan club has a long-standing interest in the 28-year-old Colombian international and sees him as a key addition to their squad.
With AC Milan's Rafael Leão also on their radar, Barcelona may opt for Díaz due to cost considerations. Díaz's current contract with Liverpool expires in June 2027, paving the way for a potential move to the Camp Nou.
Other Transfer Rumors
- Chelsea, Liverpool, and Newcastle United are frontrunners in the pursuit of Bournemouth defender Dean Huijsen.
- Chelsea could part ways with Cole Palmer if they fail to secure Champions League football next season.
- Houston Dynamo is set to sign midfielder Nicolás Lodeiro on a free transfer from Orlando City.
