Luis Diaz sent an emotional message to Liverpool fans after completing his move to Bayern Munich this Wednesday.
The Colombian was expected to leave Anfield this summer, as he had only two years left on his Liverpool contract.
His wages at the club were also not among the highest, as he was earning around £140,000 per week at Anfield.
The 28-year-old was reportedly unhappy with the Merseyside club, as he might have expected a pay rise after his performances last season.
Following that, he was considering a move this summer and started exploring options for his future.
FC Barcelona and Bayern Munich were the two clubs interested in him, but the Spanish giants decided to back off as they didn’t want to spend the amount Liverpool demanded.
That made Bayern Munich the favourites to land the winger.
Despite the Premier League champions rejecting Bayern’s first approach, the German club came back strongly and paid €75m to the Reds for the Colombian.

The Colombian posted on Instagram saying: “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.”
He also added: “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.
