Jürgen Klopp has described Luis Díaz’s transfer as evidence of Liverpool preparing for the future and for “pretty much all scenarios” with regard to their current forward line. Liverpool beat Tottenham to the signing of the exciting Colombia international in a deal that could rise to €60m, making Díaz the fourth most expensive recruit in the club’s history.
Klopp expects the 25-year-old to have an immediate impact at Anfield and may hand the winger a debut against Cardiff in the FA Cup on Sunday. But the Liverpool manager also believes the club have protected themselves in the long-term with the deal for Díaz, with Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mané and Roberto Firmino all in the final 17 months of their contracts.
