Munich/Liverpool, July 30, 2025 – It’s official! Bayern Munich has landed Luis Díaz from Liverpool in a blockbuster deal worth a reported €75 million. This includes potential add-ons. The Colombian star has inked a four-year contract, committing himself to the Allianz Arena until 2029. There is a possibility of staying even longer.
The 28-year-old winger is leaving Anfield after a fantastic three and a half years. He made 148 appearances for the Reds, bagging 41 goals and setting up another 23 across all competitions. Díaz, as we know, was absolutely key to Liverpool’s historic Premier League title win in 2024-25. He hit the back of the net 13 times in the league and provided 7 assists. It was his best season yet on Merseyside!
In a heartfelt statement, Díaz expressed his gratitude for his time in England: “These past three and a half years will always be special to me. I leave feeling like I gave it my all, both on and off the pitch.” He also took a moment to remember his late teammate, Diogo Jota, who sadly passed away earlier this month.
So, why Bayern? Well, with Leroy Sané’s departure and Jamal Musiala sidelined with a long-term injury, Díaz will add some serious firepower to their attack. Word is that head coach Vincent Kompany was a big fan of the transfer. He sees Luis Díaz as a vital piece in his plan to revamp Bayern’s front line.
Bayern sporting director Max Eberl couldn’t hide his excitement. He called Diaz “one of the best left wingers in the Premier League, with a fantastic attitude and a real desire to win.”
This move is one of the biggest in Bayern’s history. It also represents one of Liverpool’s most significant player sales. While some fans are raising eyebrows about Díaz’s age and the hefty price tag, others are pointing to his great form, consistency, and experience in Europe. Luis Díaz brings huge positives to Bayern’s Champions League ambitions.
What’s next for Liverpool? It’s expected they’ll reinvest the money to strengthen the squad, with Alexander Isak reportedly a target.
As Bayern prepares for the new season with a boosted attack, this transfer marks a major moment in both clubs’ summer plans. It could potentially shake up the balance of power in European football, especially now with Luis Díaz joining the lineup.
