In the last few hours, the Transfermarkt portal updated the values in some of the most important leagues and the Premier League could not miss out. Among the most highly valued players is the Colombian Luis Fernando Diaz, who currently plays for Jürgen Klopp's Liverpool. Since his arrival on Merseyside, the Colombian has not stopped being quoted. Today he is one of the top stars of 'The Reds' and his level is rising with every game. Since his arrival at the beginning of this year, he has gone from 40.00 million euros to 75.00 million euros, placing him in the top 25 worldwide, equal to Brazil's Neymar and South Korea's Heung Min Son.

The former Porto man has been breaking market records consecutively. This is now his fifth since signing for Liverpool. He has had an increase of 10 million euros in the last three occasions and is behind James Rodriguez, who so far still holds the record as the most valuable among Colombian players in the last ten years. He reached 80.00 million euros in 2015.

Precisely, among the top-ranked Cafeteros, Díaz is the first. Close behind, but with a difference of almost 40.00 million euros, is Tottenham defender Dávinson Sánchez. Luis Diaz has already played 35 games in a Liverpool shirt and has managed to score ten goals. He has five assists and three titles to his name, as well as being nominated for the Ballon d'Or, alongside players such as his teammate, Egyptian Mohamed Salah, Karim Benzema, Vinicius Junior, Cristiano Ronaldo and Erling Haaland, among other great stars of world football.

With each game, the South American usually values himself at least one million euros more. In recent days, according to the CIES list, the winger is the eighth most expensive player in the world, with a value of more than 100.00 million euros, being the only Latin American in the top 10. France's Kylian Mbappé leads the ranking with more than 200.00 million euros.

What is the new value of Luis Díaz?

In less than a year, the Colombian attacker has seen his value double. According to CIES calculations, he would have increased by 64 million pounds sterling and it is estimated that his value on the market could rise if he continues with the exponential growth in his performance. At 25 years of age, he is conquering European football among the elite players and is called to be one of the bastions of the Colombia national team in the upcoming matches of the tricolor team, along with players like Rafael Santos Borré, currently with Eintracht Frankfurt, Luis Sinisterra, from Leeds, and Luis Javier Suárez, from Olympique Marseille.
