What is the skill that puts Luis Díaz among the best in Europe?

It is not only what you see on the pitch that ends up defending Diaz, but also his statistics collected after his performances. As of today, Lucho is among the top dribblers in both the Premier League and the Champions League, aspects that have made the valuation of his record and put him on a par with players like Neymar Jr.

The portal specialising in data and information on the football market, Transfermarkt, launched a new valuation of the tab of the best players in the world and Diaz managed to climb the ladder, positioning the price of his tab at 75 million euros, equating the value of the Brazilian winger and Korean Heung-Min Son. This is due to his good performances in Liverpool's main competitions.

In the local league, the native of Barrancas leads the table of top dribblers with seven successful dribbles out of nine attempted, signing an effectiveness of 77% and surpassing players with good skills such as Wilfried Zaha (6 dribbles), Allan Saint-Maximin (five dribbles) or even Jadon Sancho himself (four dribbles).

He is also the player with the third most touches inside the box with a total of 38, making him a constant goal threat. Although he has only scored three goals in six league games, Diaz has managed to be more involved in the final quarter of the pitch, trying to improve his striker skills.

In terms of the Champions League, Diaz is the second highest dribbler in the competition with 3 successful dribbles, behind Celtic's Portuguese João Pedro Neves Filipe who has managed 6 in total. One of the aspects that the statistics also highlight is his support in defence. Although the winger has a more attacking role, he is the second player in the tournament with the most individual defensive pressures.
