Christian Falk drops early morning Konrad Laimer to Liverpool transfer update | OneFootball

Liverpool are not concretely interested in signing Konrad Laimer this summer.

Links have arisen in connection with the reigning Premier League champions following reports of the Bavarians hitting pause on the German’s contract talks.

That situation remains static, with the auxiliary right back understood to be far from happy with the original contract offer on the table.

Liverpool don’t want to sign Konrad Laimer

It’s true that Liverpool did hold some interest in the 28-year-old back during his RB Leipzig days.

However, any notion of the Reds being prepared to reignite their interest ahead of the upcoming summer window is understood to be wide of the mark.

As Christian Falk exclusively informed CF Bayern Insider: “It is NOT TRUE: Liverpool are concretely interested in Konrad Laimer. 

“Many clubs see that he’s been very strong as a backup right-back and has actually been one of the best right-backs in Europe at the moment. He’s a midfielder by trade, of course.

“Everyone can see there have been problems in contract negotiations with Bayern. I heard there has only been one meeting in this regard, which took place at the end of the last season. Bayern Munich made an offer, and it was better than the contract he has now. Though not quite as good as Laimer was hoping!”

And why should Bayern be in any rush to allow Laimer to leave? The midfielder has been one of Vincent Kompany’s most reliable performers in a 2025/26 campaign that promises to be a memorable one for Die Roten’s fans.

His average rating of 7.29/10 in the Bundesliga puts him firmly within the top nine players at FC Bayern, ahead of Dayot Upamecano (7.27/10) and Aleksandar Pavlović (7.24/10), according to Fotmob.

There could be hope yet for clubs interested in the Bayern star

That’s not to suggest that there’s an absolute guarantee Konrad Laimer will remain a Bayern Munich player after the summer window closes.

With his current contract set to expire in 2027, the Allianz Arena-dwelling outfit can hardly afford to let this one play out.

The head of football at BILD added: “The German thought, considering he’s been playing so frequently and at a high standard, he would get in the range, not of the top earners like Harry Kane, but perhaps the second tier earning around the €15m (£13m) a year mark.

“But the offer from Bayern was far from this, so he was a little disappointed.

“So, they’re just going to let time pass and wait, not too dissimilarly to Dayot Upamecano’s situation.”

But it’s a somewhat complicated situation for Max Eberl and Co. to navigate. Even more so because new deals are also a priority for Harry Kane and Michael Olise (the latter of whom is also of interest to the Premier League).

However, losing Laimer, whilst the comparatively less important player in that trio, would represent a notable blow for a side that has been lacking a reliable natural right-back this term.
