His dad was kidnapped. The club supported Diaz through the ordeal. His dad returned and started blathering about Diaz's dream of playing for Barcelona. Maybe the kidnappers were Real Madrid fans?
He has two years left on his contract. We are ready to let him play through the end of his contract. Atleast that seems to be our poker face. We have had many new faces coming in. There is an impact of too much churn as
@Frogfish,
@keniget, and
@StevieM have mentioned in many posts.
If we are okay with letting Diaz play until the end of his contract, then we hold all the cards. Keep Diaz unless we receive a crazy bid, which we won't from Barcelona, as they are broke and unable to register players. We know that. The other option is one of the Saudi Clubs or Bayern.
