Earlier this week, Barcelona sporting director Deco confirmed that Liverpool winger Luis Diaz was one of the players they liked and considered for the summer transfer window.
When asked about it at a press conference, Arne Slot appeared surprised by the publicity.
“Did Deco (at Barcelona) say this about Diaz in the microphone?” Slot asked back.
“Yes, every club has its own way of doing things, you are used to the fact I don’t talk about other players we haven’t signed. I understand he is a big admirer of Luis Diaz, so am I!
“Deco admires a few players, so do I. I like Lamine Yamal!”
