German media Biography reported that Dias' absence from Liverpool's preseason has nothing to do with his transfer scandal with Bayern, and referring to the current transfer fee prices of other Premier League offensive players, Liverpool will insist on asking Dias for at least 80 million euros.

Due to Jota's death, the Reds postponed the start of training until last Tuesday, and the Reds held their first pre-season warm-up match on Sunday. Some players did not play in the game, including Wilz, McAllister, Alisson and Dias.

Therefore, Colombian media immediately reported that Diaz's transfer to Bayern or Barcelona is becoming increasingly likely. But Biography reported that this is not true (at least for the moment) and that the reason for his absence has nothing to do with a possible transfer, but is purely a preventive measure taken to protect the players.

However, Diaz does rank among the top on Bayern's top executives' target list for finding wingers. As Bistro podcast "Bayern Insider" previously reported, the Colombian player has promised Bayern to join.

But now the clubs still need to reach an agreement: it is reported that Bayern had given Dias a quotation of 52 million euros a few days ago, but the Reds did not buy it. Reports from England said Liverpool refused to negotiate with Bayern on a potential transfer for Diaz.

According to famous reporter Ben Jacobs, Liverpool insisted that Diaz was not a seller and had rejected the offer. According to the newspaper "Photo", another reason also plays a role: the transfer fees of similar offensive players in the Premier League in recent days and weeks.

Recently, Chelsea paid about 63.7 million euros to Brighton for signing Pedro (23 years old); Tottenham paid a similar high price of 63.8 million euros to sign Kudus (24 years old) from West Ham. Tottenham Tottenham also reportedly need to pay about 70 million euros to sign Gibbs White (25) from Nottingham Forest.

, and Liverpool regards Dias as the main player of this championship team, and believes that he falls into a higher price category. It is reported that they will continue to maintain a tough stance on offer below €80 million.

However, Bayern does not want to pay so much for Dias at the moment: Bayern has set the 60 million euros plus the bonus terms as their bottom line.

In addition to financial factors, Jota's death also disrupted Liverpool's lineup planning. It is unclear whether they will let any offensive player go and if so, which player will leave the team. It seems that the only possible candidates are Nunez - who is one of the most likely players to be sold, but the market demand is not high - and Garkepo or Diaz. In addition, if someone leaves the team, it is completely unknown whether they will introduce replacements.
