Liverpool star Luis Diaz at heart of filed FIFA complaint amid £7.7million transfer dispute

Luis Diaz finds himself embroiled in a FIFA complaint following his Porto exit in January

The Colombian made the switch to Liverpool after the Reds beat Tottenham to his signature. Diaz had been hugely impressive in Portugal, where he spent three years. Porto have long enjoyed the fruits of the South American market and added the now Reds star back in 2019 from Barranquilla FC.

When they signed him it was stated that Barranquilla FC were entitled to retain 20 per cent of his economic rights. That enabled them to a portion of his next transfer fee - but that has not yet been paid following Diaz's £40million move to Anfield. As a result a complaint has been lodged with FIFA as the club seek an outstanding payment of £7.7m, according to reports in Colombia.
