Bayern submit €52 million bid for Liverpool attacker Luis Diaz | OneFootball

Liverpool attacker Luis Diaz reportedly wants to leave Anfield for Bayern Munich this summer, with the Bavarians keen on adding the winger to their ranks.

Per Christian Falk, “Bayern should have submitted an offer to Liverpool for Luis Diaz of €52 million. Diaz wants to join FC Bayern”.

The Reds have been trying to ward off interest in the Colombian winger, with Barcelona sounding their intention to sign him.

Unfortunately, Barcelona’s finances did not allow it, and now Bayern have entered the frame. The Bundesliga champions lost Leroy Sane this summer.

Jamal Musiala also suffered a serious injury that might sideline him for up to five months, forcing them to ramp up transfer activity.

Bayern have settled on Diaz, who earns £55,000 per week, to strengthen the ranks and are pushing to sign the 28-year-old, but it remains unclear if the offer is enough.

The Reds might also be unwilling to let Diaz go after losing Diogo Jota to untimely death. They are already short in attack.

However, if they agree to let Diaz leave for this or an even bigger offer, Liverpool should consider signing Real Madrid forward Rodrygo Goes to replace him.

The Brazilian has struggled to break into the starting XI under Xabi Alonso and is there for the taking. He could explode at Merseyside under the guidance of Arne Slot.

Rodrygo, on his favoured spot on the left flank, is a menacing attacker, and if Liverpool can get Real Madrid to drop the €90 million asking price, he would be a terrific addition.

Another potential Diaz replacement is Lyon winger Malick Fofana. Liverpool have shown interest in his services and might decide to swoop with an offer for the quick Belgian.

The 20-year-old bagged 11 goals and six assists in 41 appearances for Lyon this term and could prove another masterstroke for the Liverpool hierarchy.
