Few players have left a greater mark on Pacific FC's history than Díaz. From helping lead the club to its first Canadian Premier League championship to becoming its all-time leading goalscorer, the Mexican striker has been a defining figure in the club's story.
Díaz first joined Pacific ahead of the 2020 season, arriving on Vancouver Island after developing through the ranks of Mexican giants Club América and gaining experience with several Liga MX clubs. He quickly established himself as one of the CPL's most dangerous attacking threats, bringing a clinical finishing ability that would make him a fan favourite at Starlight Stadium.
The 2021 season would prove to be a defining chapter in Díaz's Pacific career. Leading the line for the Tridents, he scored 12 goals during the campaign and played an instrumental role in the club's historic run to the CPL championship. Pacific capped off its remarkable season by defeating Forge FC in the CPL Final, lifting the North Star Cup for the first time in club history.
Díaz continued his remarkable scoring form into the following season. In 2022, he scored 13 goals in just 18 league appearances, earning the CPL Golden Boot as the league's top goalscorer. His performances attracted interest from abroad, and in August of that year, Díaz departed Pacific for Norwegian side Sogndal Fotball in a then-club-record transfer.
He left Vancouver Island having scored 31 goals and registered nine assists across 62 appearances for Pacific, establishing himself as the club's all-time leading goalscorer, a record he still holds to this day.
After his move to Norway, Díaz returned to the Canadian Premier League with Vancouver FC, where he continued to find the back of the net over the next two seasons. But in July 2025, he made his return to Pacific, rejoining the club on loan for the remainder of the campaign.
“I always wanted to come back and was happy to seal the deal to make this happen. My [first] son was born here in Victoria and this is a special place for our family. It is home for us.” said Diaz.
The reunion proved fruitful, with Díaz scoring six goals in 13 appearances during the second half of the 2025 season. His return brought back a familiar presence in Pacific's attack and reunited supporters with one of the most prolific goalscorers in club history.
Now, with his 100th appearance for Pacific FC, Díaz joins a special group of players who have helped shape the club's history. His journey has taken him from a promising new signing to a championship winner, a Golden Boot recipient, a record-breaking goalscorer and, ultimately, a returning fan favourite.
Through every chapter, his ability to find the back of the net has remained a defining part of his Pacific FC story. Reaching a century of appearances is another milestone in a career that has already delivered some of the most memorable moments in club history.
