On Wednesday, Bayern Munich announced the signing of Colombian star Luis Díaz from Liverpool in one of the latest high-profile transfers of the ongoing summer transfer window.
According to the official statement, Bayern Munich have confirmed the signing of Luis Díaz on a contract running until June 30, 2029, to bolster the team’s attacking line ahead of the new season.
The 28-year-old winger will wear the number 14 jersey, a shirt steeped in tradition at the Bavarian club.
The number 14 is seen as a symbol of intelligence and creativity in Bayern’s history, previously worn by greats such as Claudio Pizarro, Xabi Alonso, and Mario Basler. On the global stage, it’s famously associated with football legends like Johan Cruyff and Thierry Henry.
Díaz, arriving from Liverpool, hopes to write his own story with the iconic number and leave a lasting mark at the Allianz Arena, as part of Bayern’s ambitious project to reclaim dominance both domestically and in Europe.
