Bayern debut Luis Díaz in win over Lyon amid injury crisis
Bayern Munich delivered a 2‑1 preseason win over Olympique Lyon, debuting new signing Luis Díaz while continuing to juggle key absentees.
Colombian winger Luis Díaz scored and impressed on his debut as Bayern integrated him alongside youth prospects like Paul Wanner. With Pavlović now injured and Musiala and Davies already sidelined, coach Vincent Kompany turned to Bischof and Goretzka to fill the gaps.
“Díaz fits our pressing game perfectly and can unlock defenses on the left.”
The win raises optimism before the Super Cup final against Stuttgart on August 16 and Bundesliga opener versus RB Leipzig. Díaz’s arrival and performance may help offset mounting absences :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.
