Luis Díaz Future in Doubt Despite Stellar Season for Liverpool
Luis Díaz played a crucial role in Liverpool’s Premier League title win last season, netting 13 league goals and 17 in all competitions under new manager Arne Slot. However, despite his strong form, questions are mounting over his future at Anfield.
The Colombian winger, who still has two years left on his contract, has been linked with several high-profile clubs. Barcelona and Saudi giants Al-Hilal have expressed interest, while reports from Colombia suggest Díaz and his representatives are frustrated with Liverpool over stalled contract talks — reportedly due to the club backing out of previously discussed terms.
Bayern Munich Enter the Race
According to Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg, Bayern Munich have now added Díaz to their list of potential summer signings. While no formal discussions have taken place yet, the Bundesliga champions are monitoring the situation closely and could move if the price is right.
Liverpool are also said to be actively searching for a new winger — a detail that could indicate the club is preparing for Díaz’s possible departure.
Weighing His Options
Despite the links to Bayern, many Liverpool fans aren’t pressing the panic button just yet. Vincent Kompany already has Serge Gnabry and Kingsley Coman as left-wing options at Bayern, so immediate first-team minutes wouldn’t be guaranteed. That said, Díaz could be seen as an upgrade on both.
His situation at Liverpool is also competitive. Cody Gakpo was a key contributor last season, and new signing Florian Wirtz, while primarily an attacking midfielder, can also play on the left. That increased depth might influence Díaz’s thinking about his long-term role in the squad.
Contract Talks Could Be Key
The uncertainty may come down to whether Liverpool and Díaz can resolve the apparent contractual dispute. If a new deal can be agreed upon, he could remain a central figure under Slot. But if tensions persist — or if a major bid arrives — Díaz might be tempted to seek a fresh challenge elsewhere.
For now, his future remains unresolved, with several clubs circling and Liverpool weighing their next move.
