Mohamed Salah has penned a heartfelt message to Luis Diaz following the Colombian's €75 million (£65m) move to Bayern Munich. The Liverpool forward praised his former team-mate’s passion and resilience, calling him an inspiration on and off the pitch. Diaz leaves Anfield after three-and-a-half successful seasons marked by silverware and strong camaraderie.
Harry Kane is "delighted" to play alongside Luis Diaz after the Liverpool star made his debut against Lyon on Saturday. Despite the game not being a flawless introduction for Díaz, the Colombian international displayed flashes of his talent that have already impressed the English forward.
Luis Diaz put in a promising performance on his Bayern Munich debut following a €75 million (£65.5m) move from Liverpool. The Colombian winger impressed with his energy and creativity in a second-half cameo, but admitted post-match that he will need time to fully settle into Vincent Kompany's team and contribute at the best of his abilities this season.
Luis Diaz paid tribute to Diogo Jota after scoring for Bayern Munich in Saturday's German Super Cup win over Stuttgart, with Harry Kane also chiming in.
Bayern Munich reportedly made an enquiry to sign Arsenal star Gabriel Martinelli in the summer before landing Luis Diaz from Liverpool. According to Fabrizio Romano, the Bundesliga giants took a serious look at the 24-year-old before eventually moving for the Colombian.
Bayern Munich forward Luis Diaz lit up with joy when handed a customised PlayStation 5 controller dedicated to his late friend and former Liverpool teammate, Diogo Jota. The Colombian, who shared a close relationship with the Portuguese attacker during their time together at Anfield, was visibly touched by the red controller, which carried the engraving “Diogo J” on the back.
Luis Diaz admitted to having talks with Barcelona over a possible move from Liverpool in the summer transfer window before the 28-year-old winger joined Bayern Munich. The Colombian had been on Barca's list of targets as they pursued a new attacker but ultimately lost out as he pushed for Liverpool to accept the German club's bid instead.
Liverpool’s stuttering form has drawn sharp criticism from Daniel Sturridge, who believes the Reds are paying the price for selling Luis Diaz this summer. The former striker claimed Arne Slot’s side are missing the Colombian’s intensity and balance in attack, while suggesting the new boss made a mistake by not starting Florian Wirtz in the defeat to Chelsea.
