Liverpool\u2019s financial position has been strengthened before a potential bid for Alexander Isak after Luis D\u00edaz completed his \u20ac75m (\u00a365.5m) move to Bayern Munich<\/a>.<\/p>\n

D\u00edaz has signed a four-year contract with the option of an extra year with the Bundesliga champions after Liverpool<\/a> received an improved offer they felt represented fair market value for the 28-year-old Colombia international on Sunday. D\u00edaz, who left Liverpool\u2019s pre-season training camp in Tokyo on Monday to seal the transfer, turns 29 in January and had made it clear he wished to leave the Premier League champions.<\/p>\n

The winger had wanted to leave last summer but Liverpool stood firm before Arne Slot\u2019s debut season as head coach. The club subsequently attempted to renew his contract, which was due to expire in 2027, but with no prospect of an agreement and Bayern improving their bid with achievable add-ons, Liverpool reluctantly agreed to his sale. D\u00edaz played a key role in the club\u2019s 20th league title triumph last season and scored 17 goals in all competitions.<\/p>\n

D\u00edaz is the third most expensive transfer in Bayern\u2019s history, behind Harry Kane and Lucas Hern\u00e1ndez. He is also the third biggest sale in Liverpool\u2019s history behind Philippe Coutinho and Luis Su\u00e1rez, both of whom joined Barcelona.<\/p>\n

\u201cThree years and a half that I\u2019ll treasure forever. I arrived with all the dreams in the world, and I am leaving proud of everything we achieved together,\u201d D\u00edaz posted on Instagram. \u201cI have met incredible people, fabulous colleagues, coaches who helped me a lot, and extraordinary fans. Liverpool is, indeed, a special team, and I will keep everyone in my heart \u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would have been the perfect goodbye if we hadn\u2019t lost one of ours in such a tragic way,\u201d D\u00edaz added, referring to former teammate Diogo Jota, who was killed in a car accident earlier this month. \u201cAs I said, and I repeat, I carry everyone with me in my heart, but one of them in particular: Diogo. I will never forget him. We will never forget him. Thank you for everything. YNWA.\u201d<\/p>\n

Liverpool paid an initial \u20ac45m to sign D\u00edaz from Porto in January 2022 with \u20ac15m payable in potential add-ons. Only \u20ac4m of those add-ons have been triggered and, with Porto holding no sell-on clause, Liverpool will make a profit of \u20ac26m on the deal.<\/p>\n

The completion of D\u00edaz\u2019s move to Germany means Liverpool have raised more than \u00a3190m in player sales since Richard Hughes became sporting director in June 2024. The champions have spent almost \u00a3300m this summer, including add-ons, but remain interested in signing Isak should Newcastle show an inclination to sell their prized asset.<\/p>\n

Liverpool accept it would take a British record transfer fee to bring the Sweden international to Anfield, a move the striker is understood to want, and are likely to have the finances to make it happen with Darwin N\u00fa\u00f1ez, Harvey Elliott, Tyler Morton and Ben Doak all potentially leaving this summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Liverpool\u2019s financial position has been strengthened before a potential bid for Alexander Isak after Luis D\u00edaz completed his…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":304958,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8815],"tags":[748,393,4884,179,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-304957","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-liverpool","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-liverpool","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114944398055058091","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/304957","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=304957"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/304957\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/304958"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=304957"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=304957"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=304957"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
