Luis Dรญazโs Liverpool Future Remains Uncertain Amid Transfer Interest
Luis Dรญaz is among the few key Liverpool players with an unclear future as the summer transfer window unfolds. Despite playing a vital role in the Reds’ recent Premier League title win, the Colombian winger has been heavily linked with Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and clubs from the Saudi Pro League.
While Liverpool reportedly rejected an approach from Barcelona last week, they have now also rebuffed interest from Bayern Munich. Publicly, the club maintains a firm stance: Dรญaz is not for sale under any circumstances. Yet, speculation around his future continues to grow.
Under new manager Arne Slot, Dรญaz enjoyed a standout debut campaign, impressing with his attacking threat from the left and his adaptabilityโproving effective even in a central striker role. His form has drawn admiration across Europe, further fueling transfer rumors.
Although reports have circulated about his salary being under ยฃ100,000 per week, insiders believe that figure is inaccurate and undervalues his importance in the squad.
As Liverpool plan their next steps for the 2025โ26 season, Dรญazโs situation remains one to watchโboth for fans and clubs eyeing a marquee signing.
Luis Dรญaz’s Salary Revealed Amid Transfer Speculation: Liverpool Star Not as Underpaid as Believed
Since his arrival from FC Porto in January 2022, Luis Dรญaz has become a crucial figure at Liverpool. Given his impact on the pitch, many fans and pundits have long believed that the Colombian winger was significantly underpaid compared to his teammates.
It was widely reported that Dรญaz had been earning ยฃ55,000 per weekโa figure that, while substantial outside of football, pales in comparison to players across Europe with similar or even lesser contributions. For instance, Federico Chiesa at Juventus is believed to earn ยฃ150,000 per week, while Darwin Nรบรฑez, who had a less decisive influence on Liverpoolโs 2024โ25 Premier League title win, earns around ยฃ140,000 per week.
However, according to Liverpool Echo journalist Paul Gorst, those earlier wage reports were off the mark. Club insiders have reportedly dismissed the ยฃ55,000-per-week figure, revealing instead that Dรญaz is currently earning closer to ยฃ140,000 per weekโplacing him on par with Nรบรฑez and Diogo Jota, and ahead of fellow wide man Cody Gakpo by approximately ยฃ20,000.
This updated wage information significantly shifts the narrative around Dรญazโs contract situation. Any clubโwhether Barcelona, Bayern Munich, or a Saudi Pro League sideโlooking to lure him away from Anfield would not only need to meet Liverpoolโs steep transfer valuation but also match or exceed his current salary package.
Dรญaz now enters the final two years of his contract, a critical point in any top playerโs career. With talks of a potential exit continuing to swirl, Liverpool face a decision: either offer him a new deal to secure his long-term future or consider a lucrative sale that could help fund further reinforcements. Names like Jeremie Frimpong, Florian Wirtz, and Milos Kerkez have already joined Arne Slotโs new eraโand more may follow.
Whatever happens next, Dรญaz’s situation is no longer just about wagesโitโs about ambition, timing, and the future of Liverpoolโs frontline.
