Burnley and Leeds United secure promotion back to Premier League
Burnley and Leeds United have been promoted back to the Premier League after both teams secured victories in the English Championship on Monday.
The Reds, under Arne Slot, have a 13-point lead over Arsenal with five games left, needing just one win to clinch the title after a 1-0 victory over Leicester City.
Yet, transfer speculation is rife, with Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr eyeing Liverpool's attacking duo, according to TBR Football.
Diaz, the dynamic Colombian winger, has started 25 of his 32 Premier League matches, scoring 11 goals and providing five assists. His contract, expiring in 2027, remains unextended, and TBR Football reported Diaz "would be open to a move to the Middle East" if Liverpool accept a bid around 60 million pounds.
Nunez, Liverpool's 85-million-pound record signing, faces uncertainty after scoring seven goals in 42 appearances.
The Reds, who rejected Al-Nassr's interest in January, now value him at 60 million pounds, with TBR Football noting Nunez is "open to the Pro League." Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest have also inquired.
Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy hailed Diaz's impact after a February win over Newcastle. "He's gone under the radar," Murphy said on Match of the Day 2. "His work ethic and quality epitomize this Liverpool team."
With Mohamed Salah's contract extended, Slot aims to reshape Liverpool's attack, potentially raising 120 million pounds from Diaz and Nunez sales.
However, losing both could disrupt a squad nearing greatness. As the title beckons, the summer transfer window looms large.
