Bayern Munich are growing increasingly confident of securing a deal for Liverpool winger Luis Diaz, with both clubs now optimistic that an agreement can be reached, according to Christian Falk of BILD.

The Bundesliga champions are prepared to return with an improved offer of around €75 million, after their previous bid of €67.5 million was swiftly rejected by Liverpool.

Diaz, 28, has reportedly made his intentions clear: he wants to join Bayern Munich this summer.

While he remains under contract at Anfield until 2027, Liverpool are believed to be open to negotiations following an aggressive recruitment campaign under new manager Arne Slot.

The Reds have already signed five new players and are on the verge of completing a high-profile deal for Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike, with the 23-year-old already having arrived in the UK for a medical today.

The Frenchman’s arrival could prompt a reshuffle in Liverpool’s attacking lineup, potentially clearing the path for Diaz’s departure.

Bayern boss Vincent Kompany is keen to build a dynamic attack around Harry Kane and sees Diaz as a direct replacement for Leroy Sane, who joined Galatasaray earlier this window.

With Kompany’s vision hinging on a fluid, fast-paced frontline, the Colombian’s dribbling and work rate are seen as a perfect fit.

Meanwhile, Liverpool are already preparing for life after Díaz.

The Brazilian forward has begun exploring his options amid increased competition in Madrid.

Liverpool have maintained a firm stance on Diaz’s valuation — believed to be around €100 million (£84.5m) — but Bayern are confident that the Reds will soften as the window progresses, especially with financial balancing in mind after spending over £300 million this summer.

With both parties now aligned in intent, and Diaz eager for the move, a breakthrough in the coming days appears increasingly likely.
