Díaz with a quirky comment: "Schweinsteiger or something like that, right?" | OneFootball

Luis Díaz spoke with the club’s own magazine Säbener 51 about his first memories of FC Bayern. In doing so, the Colombian provided a curious moment.

Luis Díaz transferred from Liverpool FC to FC Bayern for around 70 million euros. Since then, the Colombian international has quickly settled in with the Munich side. In his first two Bundesliga matches, he already scored two goals. He has now given an interview to the club magazine Säbener 51. In it, he spoke, among other things, about his connection to the record champions.

Speaking about his earliest memory of FC Bayern, the 28-year-old said: “I’ve always watched a lot of football. When I’m at home, I watch pretty much everything. My first memories of FC Bayern are Robben and Ribéry.”

Afterwards, Díaz made a rather unusual statement: “And then there was a player named Schweinsteiger or something like that, right? I remember the 2013 Champions League final very well, which Bayern won against Dortmund. That left a lasting impression on me.”

“James said it was the perfect club for me”

Interesting: Díaz also revealed that he was in contact with former Bayern star James Rodríguez. “James congratulated me on my move to FC Bayern. He said it was the perfect club for me and that I would feel comfortable there. He wished me many titles,” the winger recounted.

After the 6-0 win over RB Leipzig, Harry Kane spoke about playing alongside Díaz and explained: “And Lucho, it’s only been a few weeks, but I feel like we immediately had a connection, he gave me a couple of assists today.”

In recent matches, Díaz has been attacking down the left wing. The 2024 Premier League champion currently forms a wing partnership with Michael Olise.
