Bayern Munich Push for Luis Diaz with Improved Bid

Bayern Munich will make a new offer for Liverpool winger Luis Diaz. Diaz is open to joining the German club. Liverpool have rejected previous bids, but Bayern are determined. They are preparing a higher offer to strengthen their team before the new season. According to reports, Luis Diaz is ready to leave Liverpool and has informed the club he wants to leave.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Bayern Munich‘s chase for Luis Diaz is getting stronger. Two bids, first €52 million and then €67 million, were rejected by Liverpool. Bayern will now offer a third bid around €75 million. Diaz has told Liverpool he wants to move and could sign with Bayern until 2029, after agreeing on personal terms that include a lucrative contract. Liverpool do not want to sell. They see Diaz as very important after winning the Premier League last season. They might demand close to €80 million to sell the 28-year-old winger.

LIVERPOOL AND BAYERN: SITUATION THIS SEASON

Liverpool won the Premier League last season, with Diaz playing a big part. Last season, Diaz scored 13 goals and provided 5 assists in 36 Premier League matches, finishing as Liverpool’s second-highest scorer. In 2024/25, he scored important goals and assists, playing often under new manager Arne Slot. Bayern Munich aim to win the Bundesliga again after reclaiming the title last season and they want more power on the wings. If Liverpool lose Diaz, they must find a new player. Reports suggest Hugo Ekitike is a target. If Bayern do not get Diaz, they may try for Lyon’s Malick Fofana instead.

WHAT’S NEXT?

Negotiations are at a key stage. Bayern will give what could be their last offer for Diaz this week. If Liverpool accept, Diaz could join Bayern before the season starts. If the move happens, Liverpool will quickly find a new winger to replace him. Both Liverpool and Bayern are preparing for important league seasons and Champions League group stage games. Liverpool will start the Premier League against Bournemouth, a mid-table. Bayern will play RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga. This transfer decision will affect both clubs as they aim for success in 2025/26.
