Winger a long-term target for German club
Arne Slot not looking to replace Jarell Quansah
Luis Díaz is close to leaving Liverpool for Bayern Munich. The Colombian forward has been a long-term target for the German champions and a second bid this summer, for a deal worth around £70m, has tempted England’s champions to sell.
Díaz was left out of Liverpool’s pre-season 4-2 defeat in Hong Kong against Milan with the Liverpool manager, Arne Slot, confirming that the absence was because of transfer speculation.
“In Lucho’s situation it was, yeah,” Slot said. “There are a lot of rumours around it lately and I cannot go into that. But he is training really well with us and we have decided, for now, not to play him yet.”
