Liverpool Stand Firm, Reject Bayern Munich’s £58M Bid for Luis Diaz
Liverpool have turned down a £58 million offer from Bayern Munich for Colombian winger Luis Diaz during the current summer transfer window. The German giants made an official approach for the 28-year-old in their search for a new attacking option following injury setbacks to key players. Despite the bid, Liverpool were quick to reject the proposal, viewing the offer as significantly below their valuation of the player.

Since arriving from Porto in 2022, Diaz has established himself as a key figure in Liverpool’s frontline. His contributions were instrumental in Liverpool’s successful campaign last season, where he scored 17 goals and provided seven assists across all competitions. His performances, particularly in the Premier League where he netted 13 goals, helped the club secure the league title with a comfortable margin.

Reports have emerged suggesting Diaz is open to a new challenge and has even agreed to personal terms in principle with Bayern. However, Liverpool’s management remains firm, reiterating their stance that Diaz is not for sale. This response mirrors their earlier rejection of an approach from Barcelona earlier in the summer, underlining their intent to keep their attacking core intact.
With his contract running until 2027, Liverpool hold a strong position in any negotiations. While Bayern and even Saudi side Al-Nassr are still monitoring the situation, the club is also considering extending Diaz’s current deal to further solidify his future at Anfield. Any club looking to sign him will likely need to present a significantly higher offer to even open serious talks.
