Al Nassr ready to pay £73m to sign Liverpool attacker

Saudi Pro League giants Al-Nassr are prepared to pay £73 million to purchase Liverpool attacker Luis Diaz during the summer transfer window, according to journalist Ben Jacobs.

Diaz had a brilliant start to the previous campaign for the Reds with regular goal contributions, but his form drastically dipped in the back end of last season.

This has spread speculation regarding his future, but he is not close to leaving at the moment. Barcelona are among his admirers, but they can't afford him as of now.

Al-Nassr have the financial capacity to do so. They are willing to pay £73m for his services, but Diaz does not appear convinced to make the switch to the Saudi giants.

He is keen to continue playing at the highest level in Europe and may turn down the prospect of a big payday in Saudi. Al-Nassr are also exploring other alternatives.

Arsenal's Gabriel Martinelli is one of the names being discussed.
