Diaz, who has just two years left on his contract at Anfield, has expressed his desire to leave the club after spending three seasons in the Premier League. Earlier in the window, Barcelona were linked with the forward, but they ultimately decided to sign Marcus Rashford due to financial constraints. Bayern entered the fray, too, and are expected to step up their pursuit in a bid to land the Colombian international. The Bavarians are determined to get Diaz's signing over the line despite seeing their earlier bid worth £59 million (€68m/$79m) being turned down by the Reds. Per reports, the reigning Premier League champions are demanding a fee in the region north of £70m (€80m/$94m).
Getty Images SportWHAT NEXT FOR LUIS DIAZ?
It is likely that Liverpool will soften their stance on Diaz's valuation and accept the second bid from Die Roten, who are prepared to offer the 28-year-old a deal that will run until 2029 or 2030. The Reds have already spent close to £300 million (€345m/$402m) this summer, and might have to make sales to balance the books.
