On July 28, 2025, Bayern Munich officially agreed a deal to sign Luis Díaz from Liverpool for a reported €75 million package. The Colombian forward, aged 28, received permission from Liverpool to leave their Asia tour and travel to Munich for his medical examination. Following the medical, Díaz is set to sign a four-year contract with Bayern lasting until June 2029.
Díaz had expressed a strong desire to leave Liverpool, feeling he had achieved all he could at Anfield. Liverpool accepted the offer, recognizing the opportunity to secure a good market value for a player entering the later stages of his career. Bayern Munich will offer Díaz a gross annual salary of approximately €14 million.
The transfer closes a saga reported by top transfer experts Fabrizio Romano and David Ornstein, who confirmed all parties reached a full agreement. The signing is expected to bolster Bayern’s attacking options as they prepare for the upcoming season, with Díaz potentially featuring in their first friendly match against Olympique Lyon shortly after his arrival.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot highlighted Díaz’s importance to the team last season, noting his contribution of 13 goals and five assists in 28 Premier League starts. Díaz's departure leaves a gap on the left wing, with Cody Gakpo and Rio Ngumoha among the existing options. Liverpool is anticipated to enter the transfer market to find reinforcements following this significant sale.
This transfer marks a major move for Díaz, offering fresh challenges at a club consistently competing at the highest levels domestically and in the Champions League. For Liverpool, it signals a transitional phase in their forward line as they look to rebuild after losing a key player.
