According to British media, Luis Diaz is about to complete the Liverpool transfer to Bayern Munich with a value of up to 75 million euros (65.5 million pounds, 88 million USD).
The Colombian international has been allowed to leave Liverpool's training camp in Tokyo (Japan) to undergo a medical examination with the Bundesliga champion.
This is a big change in Liverpool's attack restructuring plan this summer. Although he is an important player at Anfield, he has rejected two offers to extend his contract and expressed his desire to leave from the summer of 2024.
Born in 1997, Diaz started his career in his native Colombia, before going to Europe to play for Porto in the summer of 2018. His talent was quickly confirmed in Portugal, by January 2022, he arrived at Liverpool for nearly 50 million euros, including add-ons.
In the early stages at Anfield, Diaz was mainly a strategic option from the bench. However, in the last 2 seasons, he has gradually affirmed his pivotal role under Jurgen Klopp.
In total, the left winger has played 148 matches, scoring 41 goals in all competitions and winning 5 titles with Liverpool. In the 2024-2025 season alone, Diaz contributed 17 goals and 5 assists, contributing greatly to Liverpool's promotion to the Premier League championship.
According to a source from the British press, Liverpool have prepared a replacement plan. They will soon send an official proposal to Newcastle United to recruit Alexander Isak. The Swedish striker has withdrawn from Newcastle's Asian tour due to a thigh injury.
Although medical examinations show that the injury is not serious, Isak still stays in Tyneside and is said to have expressed his desire to join Liverpool.
If Isak is signed, Liverpool will own a new, young and fast attack, combining established stars and potential talents.
Above all, the departure of Luis Diaz can be considered a timely decision, helping both sides open a new chapter in their journey to conquer the top.
