The Colombian has had a great start to the season

Luis Díaz is one of the names that has been conquering English football. Since his arrival at Liverpool, he has shown that he is capable of being a key player in the team managed by Jürgen Klopp. Although Liverpool's current situation is not the best, due to the results achieved at the beginning of the season, both in the Premier League and Champions League, the ex-Porto has been able to stand out with his team, even in difficult moments.

The local press has listed the Colombian winger as one of the most important and influential players of the team so far this season. In fact, Diaz has put up good numbers and has responded in difficult moments for the club. In eight games played, the 25-year-old has scored four goals, which leaves him with a record of one goal every two games.
