Barcelona transfer target wants to join Bayern Munich in epic U-turn | OneFootball

Luis Diaz has become one of the most sought-after players in the transfer market right now, with multiple clubs, including Barcelona and Bayern Munich, interested in his services.

Despite winning the Premier League title with the Reds, Diaz has no desire to stay at Anfield and has already expressed his desire to leave the club.

Barcelona are keeping a close eye on Diaz, who was reportedly keen on playing for the Catalans and was even willing to lower his salary package in order to join the club.

However, in a significant turn of events, it appears Luis Diaz wants to play for Bayern Munich next season.

That is according to Sky Sports journalist Florian Plettenberg, who suggests Diaz has already informed Liverpool of his desire to play for Bayern.

The move has been greenlit by Bayern coach Vincent Kompany, who is desperate to have the Colombian international as part of his attacking arsenal.

The report adds that although there is no deal yet between Bayern and Diaz, personal terms should not be an issue.

It is, in fact, up to Bayern now to reach an agreement with Liverpool surrounding the player’s price tag.

Diaz’s desire to play for the Bavarians likely stems from the fact that Barcelona are not interested in meeting the player’s price tag set by Liverpool.

Mundo Deportivo adds that Barcelona are not expected to spend anything more than €60 million for the services of Diaz.

The club, in fact, are focusing on targets that are realistic. A move for Luis Diaz, therefore, has been practically ruled out, as reported by various news outlets earlier in the week.
