Luis Diaz has reportedly informed Liverpool that he expects the club to accept Bayern Munich’s offer unless they honor their earlier promise to offer him a new contract. The Colombian winger, soon to be 29, is said to be frustrated by Liverpool’s failure to follow up on contract extension talks initiated in May. Diaz himself has "requested" that Liverpool accept Bayern’s bid should the contract renewal not materialize, according to Colombian journalist Pipe Sierra.

Bayern Munich is preparing to submit a formal offer for Diaz, with reports indicating that personal terms between the player and Bayern are already agreed upon. The German club’s confidence in completing the deal adds pressure on Liverpool to act decisively.

Diaz joined Liverpool from Porto in January 2022 and has since made over 100 appearances, contributing 24 goals. Last season, his performance included 13 assists across all competitions, playing a significant role in Liverpool’s Premier League title win. Despite this, the ongoing contract situation means Liverpool might lose one of their key starters just weeks before the new season commences.

Currently involved in pre-season under Arne Slot, Diaz missed a friendly against Stoke City, reflecting doubts over his participation in the upcoming Premier League opener. Though his contract runs until 2027, the absence of an extension combined with the player’s push for a move could compel Liverpool into negotiations on Bayern’s terms.
