Premier League Liverpool signed winger Luis Diaz from Porto for £37.5 million in the winter window in January. The transfer fee could potentially amount to £50 million. This ultimately depends on how the players perform at Anfield.
The Colombian player has made his debut at Liverpool in a 3-1 FA Cup win over Cardiff City.
Liverpool's new signing's old father, Luis Manuel Diaz, revealed some details about the player's transfer in an interview in Colombia.
Among them, Diaz's old father said that the Roma team also wanted to get Luis Diaz, but showed too much hesitation.
The father of the former Porto winger revealed roma were close to Luis Diaz before Liverpool.
The old father said: "There are many suitors who want Louis. He wants to go to Liverpool because they are the elite of football. Tottenham Hotspur want him, but Roma want him too. But Roma were too hesitant to offer an offer and were eventually overtaken by Liverpool. The manager in England is faster than the manager of Roma.
In terms of reinforcements, who shoots faster also depends on how much money is in the club's wallet and who pays faster.
Perhaps missing Luis Diaz is another regret for Mourinho.
