Kostas Tsimikas sends 'very hard' Luis Diaz message ahead of Liverpool return

Kostas Tsimikas has welcomed the impending return of Luis Diaz - admitting he hopes the Reds forward can show a "little bit of the magic" during Monday's visit to Leeds United.

Diaz has not featured for the Reds since suffering a serious knee injury in the 3-2 defeat to Arsenal on October 9, before a relapse of the same issue during the club's mid-season training camp in Dubai required him to have further surgery and miss the following four months.

However, it is expected the 26-year-old will make his highly-anticipated return to action on Monday night when Liverpool travel to Elland Road to face Leeds United. Prior to last weekend's clash with Arsenal, manager Jurgen Klopp admitted that while the Reds must be "careful" in the handling of the winger's return, he will be "100 per cent" available for the trip across the Pennines.
