On the evening of January 30, Beijing time, Premier League giants Liverpool Club officially announced the signing of Porto striker Luis Díaz, and the two sides will sign until June 2027. The Colombian striker will be the Reds' first new signing in the winter window.
According to the famous Romano, the total transfer fee of Luis Díaz is as high as 60 million euros, or about 49 million pounds. He will wear the Number 23 shirt worn by Carragher, Emre-Jan and Shaqiri.
Born on 13 January 1997, Luis Díaz can also play as a winger and has excellent speed and explosiveness. In July 2019, Porto spent a transfer fee of €7.2 million to bring him in from barranquilla youth. This season, Luis Díaz has contributed 16 goals and six assists in 28 appearances for Porto. Currently in the Portuguese Premier League top scorers list, Luis Díaz is provisionally second with 14 goals.
Luis Díaz is also an active Colombia international, having led the Colombian men's team to the round of four at last year's Copa America, where he scored goals against Brazil and Argentina. Luis Díaz also won the Golden Boot of the Copa America with Four goals, alongside Messi.
Liverpool have been interested in Luis Díaz for a long time, and the Colombian has impressed Klopp with porto and Liverpool's two legs in the Champions League group stage this season. The Reds had planned to buy Luis Díaz this summer, but Conte's Tottenham plan to grab the man in the winter window, which had to give Liverpool an early shot.
And if Liverpool bring in Luis Díaz, the Reds forward line, which already has Salah, Mane, Jota and Firmino, will undoubtedly be more luxurious. Two edge shooters, Origi and Takushi Minamino, may have brought in Luis Díaz and forced them to leave the team.
