Overview

• Bayern Munich have reopened transfer discussions with Liverpool over Luis Díaz after their €67.5 million offer was rebuffed, but no fresh bid has emerged.
• Manager Arne Slot confirmed he left Díaz out of Saturday’s AC Milan friendly in Hong Kong because Liverpool are negotiating over his future.
• Liverpool insist Díaz’s contract through 2027 gives them freedom to reject proposals that fall short of their valuation.
• Darwin Núñez missed the same fixture with a minor fitness issue while reports link him with a potential move to Saudi club Al Hilal.
• As a precaution, Liverpool have been tracking PSG winger Bradley Barcola to reinforce their attack if key forwards depart.
