Liverpool's Luis Diaz Embarks on Surprise New Career Just Six Months After Leaving
By Mirror Sport Reporter | Published: Recent
In a shocking pivot from football stardom, former Liverpool winger Luis Díaz has launched a music career just six months after his summer transfer to Bayern Munich, captivating fans worldwide with his debut single.
Díaz, who left Anfield after a trophy-laden spell including the FA Cup and EFL Cup, has traded the pitch for the studio. The 28-year-old Colombian released "La Promesa" – "The Promise" – a heartfelt track co-created with artists DJ Juanda Iriarte and Nelsen. Far from a boastful anthem, the song chronicles his journey from street soccer in a humble "casita" to Bayern's star attacker, emphasizing family promises, discipline, faith, and silent hard work[3]. Lyrics evoke metaphors of championship battles and donning "gloves" for daily struggles, mirroring his relentless on-field intensity.
This creative leap follows Díaz's seamless integration at Bayern, where he notched two goals and two assists in his first two Bundesliga games post-Liverpool. His form propelled Colombia to 2026 World Cup qualification via a 3-0 thrashing of Bolivia, where he assisted in 87 minutes – his seventh goal involvement in 10 qualifiers[2]. "It’ll be my first World Cup. I’m very moved," the disruptor declared, poised to eclipse James Rodríguez's 2014 quarterfinal legacy with dynamic runs, 1-v-1 mastery, and big-moment magic like stunning Brazil[1].
Bayern fans hail Díaz as a "revelation" and "chaotic new star," blending leadership with elite European pedigree[2][4]. Yet, amid World Cup hype – Colombia fifth in CONMEBOL, eyeing a deep USA-Mexico-Canada run[1][5] – "La Promesa" reveals his grounded soul. No fame-flaunting rap, but a grateful ode to origins, making it a credible hit that underscores why he's Bayern's top performer and Colombia's standard-bearer.
From Porto titles to Liverpool silverware, now music: Díaz's promise evolves. Will tracks follow goals at the 2026 finals? Los Cafeteros and Bayern faithful watch eagerly.
