Saudi Arabia prepares MEGA Luis Diaz offer
One Saudi Arabian side is prepared to make a huge offer for Luis Diaz.
The Colombian is officially not for sale at the moment. However, with only two years left on his contract, there must be a world where Liverpool do consider parting ways with Diaz.

He's going to be 29-years-old by the end of the year. Liverpool will be reluctant to give him a contract extension and while he has played a key role in Arne Slot's success this season, there are options for the Reds to explore on the market.
Options like Anthony Gordon and Rafael Leao, who are both younger and represent a similar level to Diaz.
But they are expensive options and that means Liverpool will only consider Diaz's sale if they know they can replace him with a better player and will have the financial stability and Premier League Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) compliance.
That might just be the case with the latest offer set to be tabled by Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr.

According to Ben Jacobs, Diaz is open to an exit and Al Nassr are interested in his services. The reporter claims that they are so interested in fact that they are prepared to start bidding for him.
The club is reportedly willing to make a mega €85m offer to test Liverpool's resolve whether to keep Diaz or not.
This would be a significant sum and would definitely help Liverpool when it comes to PSR. Considering Gordon is likely available around £80m, Liverpool won't have to pay that much more in order to sign him from Newcastle United.
At this rate, if the report is true, we can see Liverpool not only considering Al Nassr's very lucrative offer but also accepting it.
Even if Liverpool don't bring in Gordon or Leao, there's still a more than capable and competent left-winger in Cody Gakpo who can be Slot's first choice.
On top of that, the Reds are about to bring in Milos Kerkez, who will bring even more speed and attacking threat on the left-flank.
Not to mention Florian Wirtz is capable of playing off the left, and Dominik Szoboszlai has also played there in his career before.
Having Diaz there isn't a necessity. Liverpool could easily move on from him for the right offer.

It's also important to note, Liverpool won't get a better offer for him if they don't extend his contract. This is their last chance to sell him for big bucks.
