In 2014, he joined Manchester City’s youth system from Malaga. After honing his skills in England, Moroccan midfielder Brahim Diaz returned to Spain in 2019. He moved to Real Madrid, but was hampered by the ability of the regulars and spent three seasons on loan at AC Milan, starting in 2020.
The 24-year-old midfielder returned to Real Madrid last summer and has started to win the trust of Carlo Ancelotti since the end of last year, playing in a variety of positions, including left and right wing, second striker, and attacking midfielder.
However, the competition for starting places with England midfielder Jude Bellingham and other world-class players is fierce. With the arrival of French international Kylian Mbappe also looming, it remains to be seen whether he will be able to secure enough playing time for next season and beyond.
According to HITC, Premier League clubs such as Liverpool, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham Hotspur are interested in the player, who has also been very successful in the Serie A.
The paper also reports that the Moroccan midfielder’s agent has denied that he will leave the club this summer, and that the player would rather continue playing in Spain than return to England.
Liverpool is also said to be looking for an attacking position, and there are reports of interest in a number of right wingers, in addition to young German midfielders such as Florian Wirtz and Jamal Musiala.
Liverpool is unlikely to make a move for the player at this point, although he may be listed as one of the candidates. Depending on the price, and depending on negotiations with other targets, they may change their mind, but who knows?
