Add Bayern Munich sporting director to the list of people excited for the arrival of Luis Díaz. Freund thinks that Díaz is a “complete package” addition to the squad.

Luis Diaz have opened up on the role Florian Wirtz had in his decision to leave Liverpool, a career move he admits he is “glad” to make. The Colombian winger bid farewell after three-and-a-half seasons on Merseyside, signing for German champions Bayern Munich for a fee of £65.5m.

Liverpool are keen to use the funds raised through Díaz’s sale to sign Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak, but an opening bid worth over £110 million ($145.4 million) was swiftly rejected by the Magpies on Friday and it remains to be seen whether they will table a second offer.
