Liverpool are about to get an offer they can’t refuse for Luis Diaz

Liverpool may soon face a defining moment in the transfer window, and it has everything to do with Luis Diaz, one of their most important players in recent years.

According to Christian Falk, Bayern Munich are prepared to offer a maximum of £51.6 million for the Colombian star. That number may not break records, but it is big enough to give Liverpool something they have to seriously consider — especially given Diaz’s age, contract situation, and the broader context of where Liverpool’s squad is headed under Arne Slot.

Diaz was vital in Liverpool’s return to the top

Luis Diaz played a massive role in Liverpool’s most recent Premier League title push. After a turbulent 2022–23 campaign, the Colombian rebounded in a big way, delivering goals, pressing intensity, and final-third quality at a level that reminded everyone why Jurgen Klopp fought so hard to sign him in 2022.

Diaz returned to being one of the best left wingers in Europe, especially during key stretches where Mohamed Salah was injured or off-form. In a team transitioning away from some of its older core players, Diaz stood out as one of the few who elevated his game.

But there’s a problem — he’s not exactly young anymore.

The timing makes this the perfect sell-high moment

Luis Diaz is turning 28 next season, and this is likely Liverpool’s last real chance to cash in at full market value. If they wait any longer, his price drops, his resale value plummets, and Liverpool risk holding onto an asset past its peak.

Selling him now, especially with serious offers coming in, could allow Liverpool to reinvest that money in a younger, more versatile attacker, someone who can be a long-term starter under Slot. The dream target? Rodrygo Goes — a player Liverpool have admired and one who may become available if Real Madrid continue to push him out of the squad.

Bayern Munich are serious, and Barcelona are lurking

Liverpool aren’t dealing with tire-kickers here. Bayern Munich are ready to pay, and they see Diaz as a key figure in their own rebuild. With Leroy Sané’s future in question and Thomas Tuchel gone, the German giants are shifting their focus back to dynamic wide play, and Diaz fits perfectly.

Barcelona have also kept tabs on Diaz for months, but their financial situation makes Bayern the more credible threat right now. If Bayern table the £51.6 million bid, it could be exactly what Liverpool need to make a difficult but smart decision.

This is business, not betrayal

Letting go of Luis Diaz would not be a betrayal — it would be a proactive, strategic move for a club that has always succeeded when it thinks one step ahead.

Liverpool already have depth on the left wing and several young players coming through. Turning Diaz into cash now could be the catalyst for a major attacking upgrade, while still respecting what he brought to the club.

Bayern’s offer is not just tempting. It may be too smart to refuse.
