Exactly one year ago, Luis Díaz began his journey with Bayern Munich with a perfect script. In his official debut on August 16, 2025, during the German Supercup against Stuttgart, the Colombian winger scored a decisive goal in a 2-1 victory, securing his first trophy with the club. His celebration, mimicking a console game, served as a tribute to his former Liverpool teammate, Diogo Jota.

Now, the player faces a fresh challenge. On Saturday, August 22, Bayern will take on Borussia Dortmund in the 2026 edition of the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup at Signal Iduna Park.

Díaz enters this high-stakes match as a key figure in the Munich attack, arriving with strong momentum following his return from the 2026 World Cup. The Colombian is eager to replicate the history he started a year ago: performing on the biggest stage, making the difference, and kicking off a new season with a title.
