Diaz’s current contract expires in 2026. Normally, about 2 years before the expiration date, the players and the team will sit down to discuss the extension. However, Liverpool have not shown any signs with Diaz. Arne Slot has continuously praised and said nice things about his student, but everything will be meaningless if both sides no longer look in the same direction in the future.

When Liverpool was lacking a striker due to Diogo Jota’s injury and Darwin Nunez was harmless, from a winger, Diaz moved into the penalty area and played very well in the “forced” role of striker. A player who not only plays well in his best position, but also knows how to do well in other roles in situational solutions, that is the person Arne Slot needs to go the long way.

This season, Diaz is showing incredible form and endurance when playing every single match of Liverpool since the beginning of the Premier League season. While the contract extension is still unclear, Diaz very professional and shows no signs of wavering.
