Luis Díaz has completed his transfer from Liverpool to Bayern Munich, ending a three-and-a-half-year spell at Anfield.
The Colombian forward has signed a four-year contract with the German champions after Bayern’s €75 million offer was accepted earlier this week. He was left out of Liverpool’s recent pre-season matches as the deal neared completion.
Díaz later confirmed his departure in an emotional farewell post on Instagram, thanking the club, fans, teammates and staff for their support and paying a heartfelt tribute to the late Diogo Jota.
Luis Díaz Bids Emotional Farewell To Liverpool
“Three years and a half that I’ll treasure forever. I arrived with all the dreams in the world, and I am leaving proud of everything we achieved together.”
“I have met incredible people, fabulous colleagues, coaches who helped me a lot, and extraordinary fans. Liverpool is, indeed, a special team, and I will keep everyone in my heart. The cycle ends here, and it is so gratifying to look back and realize how happy we were.”
“Not only because of the trophies we won, but for the union and friendship that made it all possible. There were ups and downs, as there always are, but there was always truth. As it should be in a family. It’s good to be leaving with the feeling of a duty fulfilled, and, most of all, to be leaving a champion.”
“It would have been the perfect goodbye if we hadn’t lost one of ours in such a tragic way.”
“As I said, and I repeat, I carry everyone with me in my heart, but one of them in particular: Diogo.”
“I will never forget him. We will never forget him. Thank you for everything.” YNWA
He played 148 games for Liverpool, scoring 41 goals and providing 16 assists. The Colombian made a significant impact in his first season, helping the team win the FA Cup and League Cup. Despite some injury setbacks, Luis Díaz was crucial under Arne Slot, delivering his best goal tally and helping the club secure their 20th league title.
Now, Liverpool will begin a new chapter without him. With Hugo Ekitike and Florian Wirtz already through the door, and with a strong interest in Alexander Isak, the Reds are building a new-look attack for the season ahead.
