Liverpool have signed winger Luis Diaz from Porto for an initial fee of £37m. The 25-year-old has signed a long-term contract with the Reds after passing a medical and finalising personal terms...
Diaz will arrive on Merseyside once he has completed international duty with Colombia, who face Argentina in a World Cup qualifier in Cordoba on Tuesday evening.
He joins Liverpool after two-and-a-half seasons with FC Porto, where he made 125 appearances and scored 41 goals, and will wear the No.23 shirt.
The fee for Diaz could rise to as much as £49m if potential add-ons are triggered during his time at Anfield.
The Colombia international was a top target for manager Jurgen Klopp in the summer, but interest from Tottenham this month accelerated their plans.
Spurs wanted to sign Diaz during the current window and were willing to pay up to £46m, but the winger preferred a move to Liverpool.
