When Luis Díaz completed his transfer from Liverpool FC, the high price tag put some fans off but that was quickly dispersed as he immediately made an impact on Bayern Munich and became a key player of Vincent
Kompany’s team, someone who gave the Colombian more freedom which allowed him to flourish.
“I feel more confident, more comfortable. And I also have a spectacular group [of teammates] where all of us play for the team,” Díaz said (as captured by X account @iMiaSanMia). “I mean, we have many stars! But we play more together and so that’s very important as well. It’s worth repeating.”
The 28-year-old along with Michael Olise and Harry Kane have inflicted serious damage, contributing to 86 goals throughout the season so far. Díaz himself has 13 goals and seven assists in all competitions and if you throw in his defensive work rate, then the €70 million fee that Bayern paid for him looks more and more of a great deal. Perhaps second only to the €53 million paid for Michael Olise (who is now worth €130 million).
