Liverpool target Luis Diaz has been dubbed the ‘Colombian Cristiano Ronaldo’ and scored the same number of goals as Lionel Messi at Copa America
January 29, 2022
Just like that, Liverpool are signing Luis Diaz.
The Porto winger, dubbed the ‘Colombian Cristiano Ronaldo’ was linked with an Anfield move earlier in January but it was suggested a summer bid was far psg shirt contrast more likely.
Tottenham, reportedly, became front-runners to sign the 25-year-old but now he’s decided his future lies at Liverpool.
The Reds are set to pay £45million for Diaz, who has 16 goals and six assists in 28 appearances this season.
He enjoyed a productive summer too, helping Colombia to a third-placed finish at the Copa America, finishing the tournament as joint-top scorer with four goals -level with Lionel Messi.
Diaz couldn’t guide his country to a second Copa America title, however, he was given a notable individual award for his efforts.
South American Football Confedera jordan messi jersey tion CONMEBOL gave Diaz the ‘Revelation of the Copa America’ award which should encourage Liverpool fans hugely.
However, they should also err on the side of caution as one of their former players, Sebastian Coates, won the v argentina shirt 2021 messi ery similar Copa America Young Player award in 2011.
Coates joined Liverpool in the same summer he helped Uruguay win the tournament but his four-year spell with the Reds was very uneventful having spent much of it on loan.

The fact he’s already scored a superb goals aga psg jersey 2022-2023 messi kids inst Manchester Ciy in the Champions League should quell those fears.
