He wanted to be the new Luis Suarez, but now Darwin Nunez takes another low blow at Liverpool

Luis Díaz ended a rather inconsistent campaign with Liverpool. The Reds finished fifth in the table and failed to secure a place among the teams that qualified for the Champions League. The Cafetero was sidelined for a large part of the season due to a niggling injury. Jürgen Klopp's side will be looking for a shock to get them back into contention for the Premier League title. After a season full of ups and downs and a squad overhaul underway, the Anfield Road outfit are looking to regain their place at the forefront of British football.

Although the Merseyside outfit's players are either on holiday or away on international duty, a number of changes have been announced on British soil. One of the options is the possibility that the 'guajiro' will have a new shirt.

According to information from the 'Liverpool Echo' newspaper, the British club have planned for Díaz to take on an even more decisive role. Therefore, as a sign of confidence in his talent, they would give him the number '7' that has been worn by several of the club's great stars.

Suárez's 7 is for Díaz

"When he first signed for Liverpool midway through the 2021/2022 season, Díaz was unable to grab that shirt because it was allocated to Milner. However, after seeing the long-serving veteran depart, there is an opportunity for him or another worthy player to emulate Sir Kenny Dalglish, Kevin Keegan, Luis Suárez and Milner himself," the English newspaper reports.
