Bayern ‘willing to pay up to £70m for Luis Diaz’
Bayern Munich could be willing to pay up to £70m to land Liverpool winger Luis Diaz, reports talkSPORT.
Bayern saw a £58.5m bid for the Colombian rejected by Liverpool and are said to be preparing a new offer.
Liverpool have been clear in their stance that Diaz is not for sale, though Bayern are getting increasingly desperate after seeing their approaches for Nico Williams and Bradley Barcola rebuffed.
It is not known how much Bayern will offer if they return for Diaz, though Liverpool reportedly value him at around £85m.

Forest would prefer to sell to Spurs’ rivals
Nottingham Forest have been irritated with Tottenham’s approach for Morgan Gibbs-White and would prefer to sell to a rival club, reports the Daily Mail.
Spurs had activated a £60million release clause in the player’s contract but Forest believed the approach to be illegal and were considering legal action, though it is unknown if this is still the case.
Man City had previously been keen on Goibbs-White, though that potential deal has gone cold with City instead signing Rayan Cherki from Lyon.
Gibbs-White has previously refused to negotiate a new contract with the club, and it is understood he’s been open to a move to Spurs.

Liverpool transfer news: Alexander Isak, Hugo Ekitike, Jean-Philippe Mateta and more
The summer months of 2024 hardly shaped the season that followed for Liverpool, and Slot has already proven that he doesn’t require overwhelming transfer activity to be successful. Last summer, he saw just two arrivals come through the door in the form of Giorgi Mamardashvili (who was immediately loaned back toValencia) and Federico Chiesa, who played a total of just 104 minutes in the Premier League.
But with Trent Alexander-Arnold heading for the exit and a Premier League title to defend, Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards are expected to engage in a substantial recruitment drive over the coming months.
Here’s everything you need to know about Liverpool’s summer transfer plans.

Juve’s Sancho move on hold for now
