With Luis Díaz leaving for Bayern Munich, Liverpool are actively searching for a new left-winger. While Real Madrid’s **Rodrygo** remains linked, his **£78m price tag** makes a deal less practical, especially with a big-money move for Alexander Isak also in consideration.

Instead, Liverpool are turning their attention to **Antonio Nusa**, the highly rated 20-year-old winger from RB Leipzig, valued at **around £38m (€45m)**. Nusa has already drawn praise from Erling Haaland, who called him “exceptional,” though he warned against overhyping the youngster too soon.

### **Why Nusa Makes Sense**

* Strong defensive contribution: **1.2 tackles & 4.1 duels won per game**

* Impressive attacking stats: Top **14% for take-ons**, top **19% for tackles** among European wingers (FBref)

* Second-youngest Champions League goalscorer in history

Meanwhile, Rodrygo registered **14 goals and 11 assists** last season but only managed **six league goals**, making his huge fee questionable.

For Liverpool, Nusa could be the smarter play—a talented, hard-working winger at half the cost of Rodrygo, with the potential to become a long-term star at Anfield.
