Maxi Bravo broke the news on ADN Gol: Unión sign Dad, how much and when? | OneFootball

Unión decided to move quickly to purchase the transfer rights of Diego Díaz, who has become one of the revelations of 2025 due to his life story. The management has decided to exercise the purchase option with the goal of definitively incorporating him into the club’s assets.

The agreement includes the acquisition of 80% of the transfer rights for USD 150,000, while the remaining 20% will remain with Sportivo Las Parejas. This deal comes after two opportunities: an initial option in June and another scheduled for the end of November, at which point Unión finally decided to execute it.

At 23 years old, Diego Díaz experienced a true leap in quality in 2025: he went from amateur football to the professional level and quickly made an impact. He scored two goals in 16 matches, most of them coming off the bench, but his performance and adaptability to the professional pace marked steady growth. For coach Leonardo Madelón, he still has room to improve, but he is on the right track. The management trusts that the forward can continue to develop his potential and establish himself as a key piece of the team.

With this decision, Unión not only secures a player with a bright future, but also strengthens its strategy of investing in young talents who emerge explosively in the First Division. The OFFICIAL announcement is expected to be imminent.
