**LaLiga Drama Unfolds as Barcelona Scrambles for Goalkeeper Solution**
Barcelona’s 5-1 victory over Villarreal in LaLiga was overshadowed by a devastating injury to Marc-André ter Stegen, who suffered a complete patella tendon rupture in his right knee. The German goalkeeper underwent successful surgery on Monday, but his absence has left a gaping hole in the Catalan club’s lineup.
**Navas Throws His Hat into the Ring**
According to sources, Keylor Navas is willing to join Barcelona as a replacement for ter Stegen. The 37-year-old Costa Rican goalkeeper, who previously played for Real Madrid, is currently a free agent after leaving Paris Saint-Germain at the end of last season. Navas is reportedly eager to play regular football and is not concerned about salary, making him an attractive option for Barcelona.
**Other Options on the Table**
However, Navas is not the only goalkeeper on Barcelona’s radar. Álvaro Valles, the 27-year-old Las Palmas goalkeeper, is also being considered as a potential option in January. Valles’ ball-playing abilities have caught the eye of Barcelona’s scouts, but it remains to be seen if the club is willing to wait until January to make a move.
**Transfer Talk Heats Up**
In other transfer news, Liverpool is set to begin talks with winger Luis Díaz over a new contract. The Colombian international has impressed so far this season, notching five goals and one assist across all competitions. Meanwhile, Tammy Abraham is keen to join AC Milan permanently, having impressed on loan from AS Roma. Fulham defender Antonee Robinson is also being monitored by Liverpool, who view him as a strong option to bolster their left-back stocks.
