Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal have reportedly opened discussions with the representatives of Bayern Munich winger Luis Díaz regarding a potential summer transfer.

According to transfer journalist Sacha Tavolieri, the Saudi club are prepared to pay the Colombian international €25 million annually. If agreement is reached with his representatives, Al Hilal are ready to propose a deal worth €132 million to the German champions.

The proposed fee would mark a significant profit for Bayern, who signed Díaz from Liverpool last summer for approximately €70 million. Despite his relatively short tenure at the Allianz Arena, the 29-year-old has established himself as a pivotal figure in Vincent Kompany’s squad.

Díaz has enjoyed an outstanding debut campaign in Germany, recording 26 goals and 23 assists in 51 appearances across all competitions. The Colombian’s current deal runs until 2029, placing Bayern under no immediate pressure to sell unless the financial offer proves irresistible.

The current talks remain at a preliminary stage, focusing on personal terms rather than club-to-club negotiations. Al Hilal’s approach reflects the continued ambition of Saudi Pro League clubs to attract high-profile talent from European football’s elite competitions.

Bayern face a decision on whether to sanction a swift departure for a player who has become integral to their attacking strategy, or retain Díaz as they pursue success in domestic and European competitions. The substantial financial package on offer may prove tempting, though the loss of such a productive forward would require careful consideration.
