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.
Are Bayern Munich the strongest side in Europe right now? They're certainly not far off it. The Germans maintained their flawless start to the 2025-26 season with a 3-0 win at Eintracht Frankfurt at the weekend. Unsurprisingly, Harry Kane was among the goals again, as the free-scoring striker maintained his record-breaking start to the campaign.
Bayern Munich forward Luis Diaz admits he has been surprised by the complete package possessed by Harry Kane after forming a formidable partnership with his new team-mate this season.

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.

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.
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.
Cody Gakpo has claimed that Bayern Munich tried to sign him in the summer transfer window before settling on Liverpool team-mate Luis Diaz. The Netherlands international, however, says he never considered leaving Liverpool, where he has just signed a long-term contract extension..
Luis Díaz has described his transfer to Bayern Munich from Liverpool as a "big gamble". The Colombian winger, who joined the German champions in a £66 million (€75m/$89m) deal, has also revealed that he spoke to Florian Wirtz about the Bundesliga before sealing the move.
