Luis Díaz's option is increasingly diluted at Barça. Dani Olmo's great Euro Cup has placed him ahead of the Colombian as 'plan B' for the signing of Nico Williams, so Guajiro's arrival is increasingly further away.
Nico Williams outlines like the signing crashes of the FC Barcelona in the market of signings. The Barcelona entity will put all his efforts in concretising the landing of the footballer of the Athletic Club of Bilbao in the City Condal this summer, since they see him like the complement ideal for Robert Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal in the forward of the new project of Hansi Flick in the banqullo of the Spotify Camp Nou.
However, his operation will not be simple. In Saint Mamés characterise for being a 'hard bone of roer' to the hour to negotiate, and with the the case of the navarro will not be the exception. The bilbaínos do not pretend to keep conversations with any club by the traspaso of the footballer, since, a priori, his intention is to retain him during, at least, a season more. For this reason, if some team wishes to incorporate him to his rows, as it is the case of the Barça, will have to pay his clause of whole rescission, which is valuada in 58 million euros.
This situation has carried to the Catalan institution to cover the back in case that the signing of the Basque footballer finish falling. The big performance of Dani Elm in the Eurocopa 2024 has consolidated him like the 'plan B' of the sportive direction in case the option of the lower of Williams finishes failing. The egarense has a clause of rescission of 60 million euros, but the intention of the culés is to negotiate a discount of this figure with the RB Leipzig, owner of his index card.
Like this then , the big 'affected' in the new planning of the club blaugrana is Luis Díaz. The Colombian was the preferred of Deco to reinforce the attack at the beginning of the summer, but finally diverse factors finished decanting the scales to the two international with the Spanish selection. In Can Barça consider that the profile of Williams is the ideal for the diagram of Flick, and his 21 years allow to think that has a higher ceiling that the one of the sudamericano to his 27 years.
His price, another problem
Besides, the cost of his operation supposes another 'escollo' for the Catalans. The Guajiro is a key piece in the Liverpool, by what the 'reds' would not leave him go out of Anfield Road by a lower figure to 75-80 million euros, as diverse report. These reasons would have generated that the alternative of 'Struggle' of begin to dilute in the City Condal, where the Eurocopa has finished to define to the two big candidates to reinforce the Barcelona offensive.
