The forward has been out of action since injuring his knee in the 3-2 loss at Arsenal on Sunday, October 9 and won't be back in action for the Reds until after the World Cup.

The 25-year-old has been on holiday back in Colombia as he continues to recover from his knee injury, but most of the recovery process will take place back in Liverpool.

"Luis Diaz is training and following the recovery protocol at the headquarters of Colombia National Team in Barranquilla. The winger came to the country for a holidays period. Most of the recovery and readaptation process will be done in Liverpool," said journalist Pipe Sierra.

Diaz is expected to be available for selection for the Reds when they take on Aston Villa at Villa Park on Boxing Day in what will be the first game back in the Premier League after the end of the World Cup in Qatar.
