Díaz joined the youth academy of River Plate in 2007.[1] He was the 5th goalkeeper for the club when he got called up to the senior team for the first time on 16 May 2021. The 4 first-choice goalkeepers tested positive for COVID-19, forcing Díaz to start for River Plate in a Argentine Primera División match against their rivals Boca Juniors in the Superclásico. Díaz made several saves, and the game was 1–1 before heading to overtime; Díaz made a penalty save, but River Plate ended up losing 4–2 in penalties.[2] On 17 June 2021, he signed his first professional contract with the club until December 2024.[3]
