Spend 140 million for the 30-year-old veteran? Bayern takes over Liverpool, what are the Bundesliga giants anxious about?

According to the well-known German media Bistro, Louis Dias has reached an agreement with Bayern Munich on personal terms, and the two parties will sign a four-year contract with an annual salary of 14 million euros. Bayern Munich will next negotiate with Liverpool on player transfer fees, and the two sides have the hope to reach an agreement between €67.5 million and €70 million.

Two "changes" followed one after another. The Bundesliga giants urgently needed reinforcement. Sane signed with Galatasaray. Musiara suffered a serious injury in the Club World Cup. Bayern Munich lost two important rotation players in the past period of time. Only Kane and Olisse (Gnabry as a substitute) were left in the main structure of the frontcourt. A frontcourt versatile player who plays the left winger position urgently needed to participate in the rotation. Louis Dias is undoubtedly the right candidate.

poached the Premier League champion and Bayern paid a "premium"

After joining Liverpool in the winter window of the 2021/22 season, Louis Dias quickly became a top Premier League winger. In the 2024/25 season, Louis Dias made 50 appearances for Liverpool, recording 17 goals and 5 assists. If Bayern Munich wants to poach from the Premier League championship team, paying a premium is inevitable. Louis Diaz is about to turn 29 and will reach 33 after the four-year contract ends. It is likely that his condition will decline in the next two or three seasons. It is indeed a huge adventure to pay 140 million euros (transfer fee + salary) for such a famous player.

Slott's "superior work", Kane welcomed his helper

When he followed Klopp, Louis Dias' role was a wing forward, who was responsible for the wing attacks and assisted the midfielders in completing the promotion task. After Slott took office, Louis Dias moved closer to the middle of the penalty area and gradually became familiar with the role of Pseudo-Nine. This change means that he can form a good interaction with Kane and Olisse. From a tactical perspective alone, Louis Diaz is indeed a tactical puzzle that is very suitable for Bayern Munich. Kompany should also like this frontcourt versatile player from the Premier League. I hope this deal can satisfy the Bundesliga giants.
