Bayern Munich has signed forward Luis Diaz from Premier League champions Liverpool for a rumored fee of 75 million euros ($86.5 million) On Wednesday.
The Colombian winger, who won the Premier League, FA Cup, and two League Cups while at Liverpool, has signed a contract with the Bundesliga winners until 2029.
The amount paid for Diaz is the third-highest in Bayern Munich history.
“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.
Writing on social media, Diaz said he would “treasure forever” his time at Liverpool and was “leaving proud of everything we achieved together.”
Diaz made 50 appearances and scored 17 goals and laid on eight assists in all competitions last season as Arne Slot’s team clinched the English title for the 20th time.
