Luis Diaz will be given new car at Bayern Munich due to strict rule Harry Kane also has to follow

Luis Diaz will be made to follow a strict rule when travelling at Bayern Munich.

On Sunday, The Athletic broke that Bayern Munich had agreed a €75m (£65.6m) deal to sign Liverpool’s Diaz.

The Colombian was reportedly given permission to leave Liverpool’s pre-season tour in Tokyo and complete a move to the German champions.

Diaz, whose contract on Merseyside runs until June 2027, had allegedly made it clear he wants to leave Liverpool this summer. The Colombian joined the Reds from Porto in January 2022 for an initial fee of £37.5m and has gone on to make 148 appearances for the club, scoring 41 goals and providing 23 assists in all competitions.

Should Diaz join Bayern Munich, he would have to follow a strict car rule, as part of their long-standing partnership with Audi.

The German car manufacturers own 8.33 per cent of Bayern, and thus all the club's players and staff receive a company car each season.

While players can drive their own cars in their free-time, they are expected to use an Audi when going to and from the Sabener Strasse training base. The rule is also followed for home games and club-related activities

Bayern players are also allowed to drive Bentleys, Bugattis and Porsches for club-related activities, given they are part of the Volkswagen group, which owns Audi.

In 2021, Kingsley Coman is said to have been refused entry to Bayern’s training ground, while he was forced to park on the street after arriving at work in a Mercedes.

On another occasion the Frenchman is said to have arrived to training in his McLaren because his Audi has a damaged wing mirror. That day Coman had to reportedly issue an apology.

Diaz is currently known to drive a Porsche Cayenne S as well as the Jeep Wrangler Turbo 2.0. The former, of course, would be acceptable to drive to Bayern-related activities given it’s part of the Volkswagen group.
