"A lot of players were linked with Bayern Munich this past summer transfer window that did not end up joining the club. In fact, until the signing of Luis Díaz, Bayern were linked to seemingly every left winger under the sun. Bradley Barcola, Nico Williams, Marcus Rashford, Ritsu Doan, Jamie Gittens, Cody Gakpo and more were also high profile names linked with the Bavarians."
"Gakpo, Díaz's former Liverpool FC teammate, took the time to speak with ESPN NL during international break. During that time, he mentioned the Bavarians' interest in signing him over the summer: "From what I understand, they (Bayern) have come, but in the end they have signed Luis Díaz," Gakpo said, as captured by @iMiaSanMia. That does not sound if it was very close at all."
Bayern Munich pursued numerous left-wing options throughout the summer transfer window but completed only the signing of Luis Díaz. High-profile names linked with the club included Bradley Barcola, Nico Williams, Marcus Rashford, Ritsu Doan, Jamie Gittens and Cody Gakpo. Gakpo acknowledged Bayern's interest, stating that they showed up but ultimately signed Díaz.
