Bayern improve Luiz Diaz offer to €67m
Luis Diaz (28) is under contract with Liverpool FC until 2027 and is highly sought after by Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich have submitted a second offer for Liverpool forward Luiz Diaz, but the Premier League side has once again rejected the proposal, according to Sports Bild. After Bayern's initial €52 million bid was swiftly turned down, the Bavarians returned with an improved offer worth around €67.5 million. However, Liverpool immediately rejected the second offer.

Liverpool value at over €100m

The Reds value Diaz at over €100m, citing market trends and comparisons such as Florian Wirtz's €150m move to Anfield from Bayer Leverkusen. Additionally, despite the strong interest, Liverpool are currently not open to selling the Colombian international. Club officials have reiterated to Bayern, Barcelona, and other interested clubs that Diaz is considered a key player for the upcoming season and beyond.

Diaz remains Bayern's priority

Diaz remains Bayern's first target after Nico Williams extended his contract with Athletic Club. The Bundesliga giants are in desperate need for forward reinforcements following the departure of Leroy Sane and Thomas Muller, coupled with Jamal Musiala's injury. Good news for Bayern is that Luis Diaz has made his intentions clear that he wants to move, and the winger has already agreed on personal terms with the club.

Trossard on the Radar as Backup

With negotiations stalling, Bayern are also exploring alternative options, including Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard. The 30-year-old Belgian, capped 45 times for his country, is seen as a potential plan B if talks for Díaz collapse completely.
