Bayern Munich want Luiz Diaz and seek contact with Liverpool for his signing
Bayern Munich have officially entered the race to sign Luis Díaz from Liverpool, identifying the Colombian winger as a key target to bolster their attack under new manager Vincent Kompany. The Bundesliga giants are preparing to open talks with the Premier League side and hope to finalize the deal soon.
Díaz on Bayern’s Radar as Sané Replacement
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Bayern are prioritizing the signing of Luis Díaz following the recent departure of Leroy Sané, who left the club after four seasons. The German side sees Díaz as an ideal fit for Kompany’s tactical plans due to his explosiveness, creativity, and versatility on the flanks.
Although no formal offer has been submitted yet, sources close to the negotiations confirm that Bayern are preparing to make contact with Liverpool in the coming days.
Competition Heats Up: Al-Nassr Also Interested
Bayern are not alone in their pursuit. Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr are reportedly ready to offer an astronomical salary to convince Díaz to join their ambitious project. However, the Colombian winger is said to be prioritizing top-level European football, giving Bayern a possible edge in negotiations.
Strategic Fit for Vincent Kompany
Díaz’s playing style marked by pace, direct dribbling, and high work rate fits well into Kompany’s pressing-based attacking system. With Bayern eager to regain domestic and European dominance, adding a proven winger like Díaz is seen as crucial to their summer rebuild.
Other Options Considered: Rafael Leão on the List
While Díaz remains the top target, Rafael Leão of AC Milan is also being closely monitored. The Portuguese forward is highly rated by Bayern’s scouting department but could demand a significantly higher fee. Leão’s profile more physical and central than Díaz would represent a different tactical solution for the Bavarians.
