Luis Diaz’s Liverpool Exit Looms Amid Bayern Pursuit and Player's Intent
So, here's the latest drama unfolding at Anfield — and it's a big one. Luis Diaz, Liverpool's explosive Colombian winger, is at the center of a major transfer saga this summer. Bayern Munich came knocking with a formal bid of €67.5 million (that’s around £58.6m or $78.8m) for Diaz — and Liverpool didn’t even blink before rejecting it.
Now, let’s be real — this isn’t just another speculative rumour. Bayern are serious. They’ve identified Diaz as a top target, and more importantly, Diaz himself has made it clear: he wants to leave. That revelation alone is enough to shake the fanbase.
But Liverpool’s position? Rock solid. For now.

Despite Diaz’s desire to move on, Liverpool have told Bayern — and anyone else circling, including Barcelona — that he’s not for sale. Internally, they value him at over €100 million. It’s not exactly a sales tag, more of a financial classification, but the message is clear: if you want him, you’d better come with a crazy offer. And even then, they might say no.
Here’s where it gets interesting — Diaz has just two years left on his contract and hasn’t shown signs of wanting to extend. So from the player’s side, there’s some distance. But from the club’s side? He’s still seen as a vital piece in Arne Slot’s system, especially after a stellar 2024–25 season where he scored 17 goals across all competitions, 13 of which came in the league. He was instrumental in helping Liverpool win the Premier League title again. You don’t just let go of that lightly.
Diaz originally arrived from Porto in January 2022 for £37.5m, potentially rising to £50m. So yes, Liverpool would make a tidy profit if he were to go for upwards of £80m — which is where most believe the club would start listening seriously. That’s the number being whispered behind the scenes. Bayern reportedly are preparing another offer, and it’s expected to be significantly higher.
And here’s the wildcard — the Saudi market is also watching. With clubs there showing interest in elite talent like Bruno Fernandes, who is older than Diaz, Liverpool could find themselves in a full-on bidding war if they even crack the door open.
For now, Liverpool’s message is unchanged: Luis Diaz stays. But football is a business, and big money talks. If Bayern — or anyone else — comes back with a number close to that €100m valuation, Liverpool may have a difficult decision to make.
This one’s far from over. Stay tuned.
