Liverpool's winger, Luis Diaz completed the transfer worth £ 65.5 million to the Bundesliga champion, Bayern Munich.
The Colombian player signed a 4 -year contract with the German club, ending 3 and a half years with the Anfield team. The 28 -year -old star was not present in the friendly match between Liverpool and AC Milan last Saturday because of his future rumors.
After rejecting the first £ 58.6 million offer of Bayern Munich earlier this month, Liverpool accepted the next offer worth £ 65.5 million at the weekend and allowed Diaz to medical examination at the club.
Although Liverpool did not want to sell Luis Diaz, the Colombian star was determined to leave Anfield, and Bayern Munich was one of the top choices after Barca decided to withdraw due to economic problem. This is the reason why Liverpool is forced to sell Luis Diaz.
With this relatively large transfer, Liverpool is likely to continue to become a cult name on Techmart as they aim to break the safe to recruit striker Alexander Isak from Newcastle. Currently, Choi Chu is pricing the Swedish star £ 150 million, but Liverpool wants to negotiate to £ 120 million.
“I am very happy, becoming a part of Bayern Munich has a great meaning to me. This is one of the largest clubs in the world,” Diaz – who will wear the number 14 shirt at the Bundesliga champion – said.
“I want to help the new team with my style of playing and my personality. My goal is to win all possible titles, we will work together to work together every day,” the Colombian star added.
Luis Diaz joined Liverpool from Porto with the original price of £ 37 million in January 2022, scoring 41 goals after 148 appearances during the time at Anfield. He won the FA Cup and the British League Cup in the first season with The Kop, and was part of the team that lost to Real Madrid in the Champions League final in 2022.
Diaz had the most successful season in his career last season, scoring 17 goals in all competitions to help Liverpool win the Premier League championship.
