Colombia's national team continues to respond to the earthquake that hit the southwestern part of the country. The Tricolor players have responded to the emergency, and now it's Luis Díaz's turn, who took a few minutes out of his concentration time in Bayern Múnich to launch messages and announce shipments. Luis Díaz is Colombia's star player and the only one currently playing in a top-level league and in a historic club, pending Jhon Lucumí's signing as a new reinforcement for Juventus in Italy. And now it's official how he will feel to help those affected by the natural disaster. In a video on social media, he announced that he continues to manage donations that arrive in the affected areas of Colombia, as well as contacting the clubs he has played for and his sponsors to join this emergency request. In the video, where he appears accompanied by his wife, Geraldine Ponce, Díaz thanked an airline that operates in Colombia and Latin America for managing the logistics and bringing food, health supplies, and personal hygiene items to the affected. After James Rodríguez, Luis Díaz became the star player in Colombia and the footballer that young people follow. His current situation in Bayern Múnich consolidates him as one of the best wingers in the world. After filling the country with goals and great performances in Europe and with the national team, the guajiro now says present in this critical moment. ## Luis Díaz follows Jhon Arias' lead The first player with the idea of sending supplies by air to the Chocó department was the offensive midfielder Jhon Arias, who published a message requesting air transportation to bring supplies and aid to Quibdó. The player, from Brazil, joined the call for help and two planes landed in Quibdó this week. Jhon Arias is recognized for his charisma and for being a man of few words in the Colombia national team. In the locker room, he has earned a place for his good attitude, as well as his great performances on the pitch. After the 2026 World Cup, he became one of the best-performing Colombian players wearing the Palmeiras de Sao Paulo jersey. Along with Jhon Córdoba, Jhon Arias, and Luis Díaz, Juan Camilo Portilla -from Brazil- held talks with Dávinson Sánchez and Gustavo Puerta to send supplies to the city of Cali. Recent form (last 5): 3W-2D-0L (DWDWW, most recent first); unbeaten in the last 5. Last result: Switzerland 0-0 Colombia (2026-07-07).
