Vincent Kompany tips his cap to Bayern Munich for signing Luis Díaz
FC Bayern made a big call last summer in Lucho — and it has paid off in spades.
PARIS, FRANCE - NOVEMBER 04: Head coach of Bayern Munchen, Vincent Kompany react with Luis Diaz #14 (L) during the UEFA Champions League 2025/26 League Phase MD4 match between Paris Saint-Germain and FC Bayern München at Parc des Princes on November 04, 2025 in Paris, France.

The ex-Liverpool winger has not missed a beat since swapping the English Premier League for Bavaria and the Bundesliga, and Kompany broke down why.
“Lucho brings a lot to the team. He can dribble, create chances, and finish,” Kompany shared in comments captured by @iMiaSanMia . “But what makes him special is his mentality; he’s not afraid of chaos and becomes a threat in those situations.
He brings a lot of energy to the team. You can only congratulate the club on signing such a player. He’s a great player for Bayern Munich.
” Kompany was not short of wing talent last year, either — Kingsley Coman and Leroy Sané were both veterans with significant weapons in their arsenal. Díaz, though, has already brought a level of x-factor in his short time in Munich that at least matches the highs of the two Bayern alums. Bayern’s unleashed an otherworldly attack this season, and one needs look no further than the Colombian international for the secret ingredient.
