While recovering from a knee injury, midfielder Luis Diaz has received great news from Liverpool. The English team hopes to have him back as soon as possible so that he can continue to contribute in the attacking area. For now, the 'Reds' are breathing a sigh of relief after achieving one of their goals. There is no doubt that one of Liverpool's short-term objectives was to secure qualification for the last 16 of the Champions League, and despite a shaky start to Group A, they finished second behind surprise package Napoli, level on points.

It is good news for Luis Diaz, as it looks like Liverpool will try to aim for the Champions League this season, as they are a long way off top spot in the Premier League, in ninth place with 16 points, 15 behind leaders Arsenal. The option of the English League title is quite distant. It is worth noting that the round of 16 is scheduled for after the Qatar 2022 World Cup, where Luis Diaz, who plans to return on Boxing Day in the Premier League in December against Aston Villa at Villa Park, will surely be back.

Midfielder Luis Diaz is recovering from injury and Liverpool are already planning his return. The Colombian player suffered a knock to one of his knees and has been out of recent games. He is expected to make a good recovery. Against Aston Villa, in the middle of Christmas, would be his return to the field. Luis Diaz has been vital for coach Jurgen Klopp in an attacking zone led by Egyptian Mohamed Salah and formed by Uruguayan Darwin Nunez, Portuguese Diogo Jota and Brazilian Roberto Firmino, being the most unbalanced faces in Liverpool's attack.

Now, the game against Aston Villa at Villa Park, scheduled for December 26th, on Boxing Day, after the Qatar 2022 World Cup, could be the return of Luis Diaz, according to Liverpool and Football Insider. It is worth noting that Luis Diaz is currently in Colombia recuperating. "The club's medical staff expect him to be back in training well before then and in contention to play again when the season resumes after Christmas. He was initially ruled out for around three months by Liverpool," Football Insider added.

Diaz spotted in a nightclub

Luis Diaz is recovering from a knee injury, which is why Liverpool gave him the opportunity to travel to Colombia to continue the process. The Colombian is in the city of Barranquilla, where he was caught at a huge party with his manager Carlos Van-Strahalen, at the reopening of a nightclub, a topic that generated controversy. In the video that began to roll on social networks, 'Lucho' is seen with a look not to attract attention, as it has a black cap and glasses, but it was inevitable that he was not recognized and recorded.
