Overview

• Liverpool have accepted a €75 million offer from Bayern Munich for Luis Díaz and will allow him to leave their pre-season tour to undergo a medical.
• Díaz was left out of Liverpool’s 4-2 friendly defeat to AC Milan as contract talks stalled and he pressed for a summer exit with two years remaining on his deal.
• The sale will recoup part of Liverpool’s near-£300 million summer outlay on signings such as Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike.
• Liverpool remain interested in Newcastle striker Alexander Isak, though manager Eddie Howe says the club is under no pressure to sell.
• Under Arne Slot, Liverpool are reshaping their squad by funding departures to pave the way for reinforcements ahead of the new season.
