Flick blocked Luis Díaz's transfer to Barcelona. What's the reason?

Barcelona was interested in signing Luis Díaz from Liverpool, but the team's head coach Hansi Flick did not give the green light to finalize the deal.

Details: According to El Nacional, negotiations between Barcelona and Liverpool were at an advanced stage, and the 28-year-old Colombian was very keen on the transfer.

However, Hansi Flick informed the club's management that he was not interested in Díaz's transfer due to his age. The German coach wants a new left winger for the team, but it must be a younger player.

Díaz's contract with Liverpool expires in the summer of 2026. The transfer to Barcelona was a priority for the player for the future, but now he and the club will have to look for other options.

This season, Díaz has scored 13 goals and provided 7 assists in 42 matches across all competitions.

Reminder: It was announced today that Barcelona's goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen, for the first time since getting injured, trained on the field with the rest of the team.
