Liverpool Rejects Bayern Munich Interest In Luis Diaz Transfer
Liverpool have rebuffed Bayern Munich\'s interest in Luis Diaz, telling the German club they have no intention of selling the Colombia international this summer.
The Premier League champions informed Bayern director of sport Max Eberl that the 28-year-old winger is not for sale. Club sources, speaking anonymously, confirmed Liverpool will not entertain any approaches for Diaz, whose contract runs until 2027.
Barcelona Previously Rebuffed
Liverpool issued the same message to Barcelona earlier in the transfer window. The club remains focused on Diaz being a key component of Arne Slot\'s squad for the coming seasons.
Diaz joined Liverpool from Porto in January 2022 for an initial £37.5 million fee, potentially rising to £50 million with add-ons. He has since made 148 appearances, scoring 41 goals and providing 23 assists across all competitions.
Diaz Integral to Title Success
The Colombian winger played a crucial role in Liverpool\'s 2024-25 Premier League title-winning campaign. He scored 13 league goals in 36 appearances during the successful season.
Diaz expressed his desire to remain at Anfield long-term in a May interview. The forward indicated he wants to stay \"as long as possible\" while acknowledging future discussions depend on club decisions.
\"For me, I\'d stay for as long as possible. It also depends on the club, it all depends on the details. But I am very calm, very happy and I am enjoying the Premier League.\"
Bayern Munich are actively seeking wide players following Leroy Sane\'s departure to Galatasaray on a free transfer. The German club\'s interest in Diaz reflects their need to strengthen their attacking options for the upcoming season.
