Unfazed by Sadio Mané’s disastrous spell in Bavaria, Bayern Munich have opted for a Liverpool winger to fill their biggest void this summer.
The Bundesliga champions have so far been left frustrated in the transfer market, watching Florian Wirtz choose Anfields and Nico Williams pen a contract extension with Athletic Club.
Liverpool were intent on retaining Luis Díaz off the back of his most productive season on Merseyside, but Bayern proved to be persistent and offered money that couldn’t be turned down for a 28-year-old not set on committing his future to the club. The Colombian international tried admirably to succeed Mané at Anfield and, overall, did a pretty good job.
Now, he’s aiming to comprehensively outdo the Senegal legend in Bavaria, with a demanding Bayern fanbase expecting Díaz to coalesce with the club’s array of attacking stars and help morph Vincent Kompany’s side into potential European champions.
