Despite helping Liverpool clinch the Premier League title in May, contract negotiations fell through, prompting Díaz to seek a new challenge.
Barcelona and Bayern had both shown interest earlier in the summer, but it was Vincent Kompany’s side that finally met Liverpool’s valuation.
Díaz now joins a growing list of high-profile exits, following Trent Alexander-Arnold and Caoimhin Kelleher, while uncertainty continues to surround Darwin Núñez amid links to Alexander Isak.
His farewell message on social media drew an emotional wave of support, not just from fans but also from his fellow Reds.
Van Dijk and Dominik Szoboszlai left public comments, and Mac Allister reportedly made a tearful tribute to his departing teammate.
He replied: “I dropped another tear.”
In his post, Diaz wrote: “Three years and a half that I’ll treasure forever.
“I arrived with all the dreams in the world, and I am leaving proud of everything we achieved together.
“I have met incredible people, fabulous colleagues, coaches who helped me a lot, and extraordinary fans. Liverpool is, indeed, a special team, and I will keep everyone in my heart.
“The cycle ends here, and it is so gratifying to look back and realize how happy we were.”Not only because of the trophies we won, but for the union and friendship that made it all possible. There were ups and downs, as there always are, but there was always truth.
“As it should be in a family. It’s good to be leaving with the feeling of a duty fulfilled, and, most of all, to be leaving a champion.
“It would have been the perfect goodbye if we hadn’t lost one of ours in such a tragic way. “As I said, and I repeat, I carry everyone with me in my heart, but one of them in particular: Diogo. I will never forget him. We will never forget him.
“Thank you for everything. YNWA.”
