Biography

Luis Fernando Díaz Marulanda (born 13 January 1997) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder and winger for Bundesliga club Bayern Munich and the Colombia national team. Regarded as one of the best wingers in the world, he is known for his pace, dribbling, and pressing ability.

Díaz began his professional career in the Categoría Primera B with Barranquilla, before moving to Atlético Junior, winning the Categoría Primera A, one Copa Colombia, and one Superliga Colombiana. In 2019, he joined Porto for a reported fee of €7 million, winning two Primeira Liga titles, one Taça de Portugal, and one Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira. After scoring 14 goals in 18 league games in the first half of 2021–22, Liverpool signed him in a transfer worth €45 million (£37.5 million). He won the EFL Cup and FA Cup in his first season, and was man of the match in the latter final. After winning the Premier League in 2024–25, Díaz joined German champions Bayern Munich for a fee of €75 million, including add-ons.

Díaz made his senior international debut for Colombia in 2018. He has earned over 70 caps for the national team, helping Colombia to a third-place finish at the Copa América in 2021, where he was also awarded the Golden Boot, and a runner-up finish in 2024.
