Wirtz said I would 'enjoy' Bayern move: Diaz - World
Luis Diaz said former Liverpool teammate Florian Wirtz told him he would "enjoy" a move to Bayern Munich as the Colombian was unveiled by the Bundesliga champions on Thursday. The German giants reportedly paid a fee which could rise to 75 million euros ($86.5 million) for the 28-year-old, whose deal runs until 2029. Heavily linked with a move to Bayern, Wirtz left Bayer Leverkusen and signed with the Reds in June. Diaz only had a few weeks with the German international at Liverpool but revealed Wirtz's advice encouraged him to move to the Bundesliga. "I spoke to Florian a few times and he told me that the Bundesliga is very intense, similar to the Premier League, that it was very physical, the stadiums are always full," Diaz said Thursday. "He said that I'd enjoy it. He wished me luck. I thank him for that". Diaz arrives as the third most expensive signing in Bayern's history, but said he was unconcerned about the pressure the price tag would bring. "I can't say if I'm worth 70 million. I just want to settle in here as quickly as possible. That's the most important thing," he said. The only two bigger transfer fees paid by Bayern were 95 million euros for England captain Harry Kane in 2023 and 80 million for French international Lucas Hernandez in 2019. Diaz won the Premier League, FA Cup and two League Cups during his three-and-a-half years at Anfield. The winger made 50 appearances in all competitions for Liverpool last season, scoring 17 goals and providing eight assists as Arne Slot's team clinched the English league title for a record-equalling 20th time.

Bayern Munich sign forward Luis Diaz from Liverpool - World
Bayern Munich on Wednesday completed the signing of forward Luis Diaz from Premier League champions Liverpool for a reported fee that could rise to 75 million euros ($86.5 million). The Colombian, who won the Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup during his time at Anfield, has signed a contract with the Bundesliga champions until 2029. "In Luis Diaz, we have succeeded in bringing in one of the best left wingers in the Premier League," said Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen. "He brings real player character from Liverpool to FC Bayern -- he's won silverware with every one of his clubs to date." Diaz, 28, said he was "very happy" with the move to the German club. "It means a lot to me to be part of FC Bayern," he said. "They're one of the biggest clubs in the world. I want to help my new team with my way of playing football and my character. "My goal is to win every possible title, and that's what we'll work for every day as a team." Diaz made 50 appearances and scored 17 goals in all competitions last season as Arne Slot's team clinched the English title for the 20th time. Diaz was left out of Liverpool's 4-2 friendly defeat against AC Milan in Hong Kong on Saturday as speculation mounted over his future. Diaz's signing gives Bayern a quality replacement for Germany forward Jamal Musiala, who has been ruled out for a "long period" after he suffered a broken leg and dislocated ankle at the recent Club World Cup.
