Liverpool could be ready to talk with Bayern Munich after all about a transfer of forward Luis Diaz, Germany's Bild paper said on Friday. Liverpool have named the Colombian an important part of their team but Bild said they could change their mind and talks could start "soon" if they manage to sign Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt.

As reported by GGFN, both Liverpool and VfB Stuttgart are determined to keep their players, despite both Diaz and Woltemade being open to a move to Bayern. Bayern have already submitted a bid of around €52m for Diaz, followed by a second bid of €67.5m. Both times, this was rejected by Liverpool.
