Bayern Munich sign Liverpool star for record fee

(Dan Tri) - Bayern Munich has successfully recruited Luis Diaz from Liverpool for 65 million pounds (more than 2,282 billion VND), even though this deal was previously rejected by the English team.

After Liverpool flatly rejected Bayern Munich's £58.5 million offer (a figure considered low compared to their valuation), the "Gray Tigers" immediately took the next action.

The Bundesliga club have restarted negotiations and accepted a transfer fee of £65m, including add-ons, to reach a deal to sign the Colombian star.

According to the Mirror (UK), Diaz is currently completing the final procedures to prepare to leave Anfield. This blockbuster deal is expected to be completed within the next 24 hours, promising to help Bayern Munich own one of the most prominent wingers in the Premier League, highly appreciated for his speed, breakthrough ability and mobility.

Meanwhile, Liverpool will have more financial resources to reinvest in the squad, especially targets like Alexander Isak or Hugo Ekitike.

Many sources in the British media said that Luis Diaz decided to leave Anfield because he was not satisfied with his current income, estimated at only 55,000 pounds/week. This figure is significantly lower than other Liverpool stars such as Darwin Nunez or Mohamed Salah.

At Bayern Munich, the Colombian star will receive a more generous salary, ensuring income commensurate with his class and contributions.

Luis Díaz, joined Liverpool from Porto in early 2022 for £37.5 million and quickly became a mainstay in the Anfield team. Last season, he scored 13 goals in the Premier League, making an important contribution to Liverpool's Premier League title.

Luis Diaz's departure will certainly leave Liverpool fans with many regrets. The Colombian player made a deep impression at Anfield with his passionate playing style, speed and important goals.

However, selling Diaz also opens up an opportunity for the "Red Brigade" to rejuvenate the squad and rebuild the force, preparing for a challenging new season.

Meanwhile, for Bayern Munich, Diaz will become the second notable recruit this season. Previously, coach Vincent Kompany's team recruited center-back Jonathan Tah from Bayer Leverkusen on a free transfer.

With Leroy Sane having left for Galatasaray on a free transfer and Thomas Muller having left, Bayern Munich's attack is lacking in depth and class. They are looking for a quick, technical player who can contribute immediately and Luis Diaz could be the answer.
