Luis Diaz wants Bayern move but Liverpool stand firm on demands

Liverpool Colombian winger Luis Diaz

    Key Takeaways:

  • Luis Diaz has a verbal agreement with Bayern for a five-year contract
  • Liverpool rejected Bayern’s latest €67.5m bid for the Colombian winger
  • The Reds are demanding €80–85m and will not lower their valuation

The saga surrounding the potential transfer of Luis Diaz from Liverpool to Bayern Munich has entered a new phase. The Colombian has informed the Merseyside club’s board that he wants to be sold and already has a verbal agreement with the German giants for a five-year contract. However, CaughtOffside reports that Liverpool remain firm on the conditions they have set for Bayern if they want to sign the player and have no intention of making any concessions.

So far, Bayern have submitted two offers for the winger. The first was worth €52 million and was quickly rejected. The second was more serious and reached €67.5 million, but it was also turned down. Liverpool insist on a fee between €80 and €85 million, and that has become the key stumbling block in the negotiations. Bayern, for their part, are not willing to go higher than €70 million, although they are open to adding a further €10 million through bonuses and clauses.
