Bayern Munich Have Joined the Race to Sign £70m Liverpool Star – Journalist | OneFootball

Liverpool Transfers: Bayern Munich are in the Race to Sign Forward

Liverpool have enjoyed an explosive start to the summer window with both Jeremie Frimpong and Florian Wirtz arriving from Bayer Leverkusen. AFC Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez is expected to join next week with a £40m fee agreed with the South Coast side.

But now, attention has shifted onto outgoings, which must take place before further signings can be confirmed. That has started with Jarell Quansah securing a £35m move to Leverkusen with a buy-back clause inserted in the deal.

Another Bundesliga club are now eyeing potential moves for two Liverpool stars, according to reports from Germany. That club is Bayern Munich, who’s interest in Cody Gakpo has been heavily reported over recent months.

According to Christian Falk, Bayern are now also interested in a potential deal to sign Luis Diaz this summer. The Liverpool forward has been heavily tipped for a move away from Anfield this summer, with a number of Saudi clubs and Barcelona interested in the 28-year-old.

With just two years left on his current deal, Liverpool are left in an intriguing position over Diaz’s future. It’s understood it would take an offer of at least £70million to initiate talks over any potential move for the Colombian.

Bayern Munich have been on the hunt for a left-winger for over a month now. Gakpo was their initial target, but it’s believed that Liverpool are standing firm in their stance against a sale of the Dutch forward.

They’ve also looked at potential moves for Nico Williams and were of course in the race to sign Wirtz before he decided to join Liverpool in a record-breaking £116m deal.
