Liverpool have reportedly turned down offers from Saudi Pro League sides Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr for Luis Diaz and he's held "positive discussions" over staying at the club.
The Colombian winger has been the subject of speculation amid interest from Saudi Arabia and Barcelona. Recent reports claimed that the 28-year-old has "no intention of signing a new deal" because of his desire to join the Catalans.
Diaz has two years left on his contract and was a key man in Arne Slot's side that claimed the Premier League title this season. He was used out wide and centrally, finishing the campaign with 20 goal contributions in 36 league games.

French journalist Sebastien Vidal reports that Liverpool have rejected two £71.7m (€85m) bids from Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr for Diaz. Slot is said to have held positive discussions with the Colombia international to convince him to stay.
Diaz has been with the Merseyside outfit since January 2022, when he arrived from FC Porto in a £49m deal (including add-ons). The Premier League title triumph was his third major trophy won with the club, and he celebrated the feat with his teammates during last weekend's trophy parade.

The winger reflected on an "unforgettable season" with an Instagram post that thanked his teammates, coaching staff, club staff and supporters. This came amid talk over his future, particularly with Cristiano Ronaldo looking uncertain to stay at Al-Nassr.
Diaz, dubbed a "world-class" talent, was the Saudi club's choice to replace Ronaldo if the 40-year-old were to depart when his contract expires next month. They look to have failed with an offer for the South American, as have their rivals Al-Hilal, who are also keen on his teammate Darwin Nunez.
Liverpool are busy working on a club-record deal for Bayer Leverkusen attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz. He looks likely to follow Jeremie Frimpong to Anfield after the Dutch right-back's £30m transfer was confirmed.
