Liverpool rebuff Bayern interest in Diaz as player admits talks with other clubs

LIVERPOOL star Luis Diaz is in demand as the Reds have rejected an approach from Bayern Munich.

- 

Despite winning the Premier League last term, the Colombian’s future has come under scrutiny with interest from the Bundesliga and Barcelona, as well as links with a move to Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League.

Arne Slot’s side have already rebuffed a move from the La Liga champions to sign the former FC Porto forward but now, Diaz has come under the microscope of the German giants as they look to land their attacking target.

According to reports, Bayern are in the market for a wide attacker and are in a battle to sign Spain and Athletic Bilbao star Nico Williams.

The ECHO understands the Reds are planning for Diaz to be part of the squad that will defend the Premier League title and have not been scouring the market for a replacement on the left wing.

Liverpool have had a busy summer already with three key signings in Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez and Jeremie Frimpong, while Diaz’s South American compatriot, Darwin Nunez, faces an uncertain future at Anfield.

With the 28-year-old the subject of interest from Barcelona and Bayern, the ECHO has taken a look at what has been said about his future on Merseyside.

Diaz faced questions about his future when he joined his international teammates after the Reds’ title win.
