Before the Winter Transfer Window Closed, Liverpool Immediately Brought in Luis Diaz

DBasia.news – Premier League giants Liverpool are reportedly set to release an official offer to Porto to sign Luis Diaz in January 2022.

Liverpool have been monitoring Diaz’s actions since last November. The Colombian player caught the attention of Jurgen Klopp after meeting twice in the 2021-2022 Champions League group stage.

Diaz became Liverpool’s main option in looking for replacements for Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah. The two Reds wingers have been absent since the turn of the year due to appearing in the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.

But Liverpool initially did not want to rush to bring Diaz. The release clause, which touched £67 million, was the main reason.

It is believed that Liverpool will only insist on pursuing Diaz next summer. At that moment the futures of Salah and Mane will also be clear.

But Liverpool began to worry about losing Diaz. It could not be separated from the maneuvers of Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur who were also interested in him.

Manchester United even sent a scout to watch Diaz play with Porto. While Tottenham will desperately pursue him after failing to get Adama Traore.

According to the Daily Mail report, Liverpool are starting to move to get Diaz. Red Merseyside representatives even flew direct to Argentina.

Diaz is currently in Argentina with the Colombian national team. He will strengthen his country against the Albiceleste in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.

This maneuver is proof of Liverpool’s seriousness to bring Diaz. It is not impossible that this transfer will be official before the winter transfer window closes.
