Luis Díaz’s contribution to Bayern this season gives him permission to take a few days off. This was revealed by Vincent Kompany at a press conference prior to the Champions League duel against Sporting Lisbon. The coach assured that the Colombian has played all the games and taking advantage of the suspension in the best club tournament and in the Bundesliga, They decided to give him a vacation.
Kompany pointed out that the Colombian has not been able to be with his family at Christmas for several years because in England they play on those dates and that is why they decided to reward him. “Lucho has played every game, with us and with the national team. He is always traveling a lot to South America and back.”. He spent a lot of time in England, where he never had a Christmas vacation. “It makes sense that he has a few days off and spends time with his family,” he said.
Luis Díaz will miss the duel against Mainz after reaching five yellow cards in the duel against Stuttgart where he contributed with an assist. For the Champions League, a date has already been met. Last Friday UEFA accepted the Bayern’s replacement appeal where he fought so that the Colombian was not suspended for three games, but only two. His return in this competition will be on January 21 against Unión Saint-Gilloise.
Díaz’s work on vacation and focused on the last game of the year
Despite the days off that Luis Díaz will have, Bayern will be very attentive to his preparation. Kompany said he will come back very strong mentally after being with his family. He will have an individual program and the Colombian also has private physiotherapists who keep him in shape.
“He will return mentally in top shape and resume his activity right where he left off. He will be back in a few days. Sometimes we give the players a little more free time, but they have an individual training program and they continue working at home. The boys train almost daily and also have private physiotherapists,” he stated.
