Luis Díaz, the Liverpool forward, has decided to leave the Premier League champions this summer despite the club’s efforts to retain him. According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Bayern Munich is considering making a new bid for the Colombian winger after Barcelona pulled out of the race for his signature. While Díaz is open to joining Bayern, Liverpool has rejected two offers from the Bundesliga champions, determined to keep the player but facing growing pressure as Díaz wants to move on.
Barcelona, having ended their pursuit of Díaz due to financial constraints, has turned its attention to Real Madrid forward Rodrygo. Reports indicate that Barcelona has already contacted Rodrygo’s agents to express interest and possibly start negotiations if the Brazilian decides to leave Los Blancos. Rodrygo, meanwhile, is reportedly seeking assurances from Real Madrid’s manager, Xabi Alonso, regarding increased playing time for the upcoming season, following limited appearances during the FIFA Club World Cup.
Díaz’s contract with Liverpool runs until 2027, but tensions remain high as Liverpool has not offered him a significant pay raise despite his excellent performances. The 28-year-old scored 17 goals last season and has become one of Liverpool’s key players. Still, his frustration with contract and playing conditions is widely reported, fueling speculation about his imminent departure.
Liverpool has set a high asking price around €80 million, which limits interested clubs, while Bayern’s offers remain below that mark. Barcelona’s priority has shifted away from Díaz, focusing instead on Marcus Rashford and other targets while waiting for an opening. Díaz has reportedly agreed terms with Barcelona personally but awaits a deal between the clubs.
The summer transfer window remains active, with Liverpool balancing plans to secure new additions like Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong while managing possible departures. Luis Díaz’s exit looks increasingly likely as negotiations continue and rival clubs intensify their pursuit.
