München, Germany— New Bayern Munich signing Luis Diaz has revealed that Liverpool teammate Florian Wirtz played a key role in persuading him to join the Bundesliga giants.
The Colombian forward, who recently completed his £65.5 million transfer to Bayern, spent time alongside Wirtz during Liverpool’s preseason preparations before finalizing his move to Germany.
Speaking to Bayern’s official website, Diaz shared insights from his conversation with Wirtz, who had previously declined an offer from Bayern to move to the Premier League.
“I was already somewhat familiar with the Bundesliga and the style of football here,” Diaz said. “Florian explained that while the league differs from England, it remains intense and physical, with high-quality football, strong teams, and packed stadiums.”
He added, “Florian also spoke highly of the city, assuring me I’d enjoy living here. He wished me the best of luck, and I’m truly thankful for his support.”
