All signs point towards Luis Diaz becoming a Liverpool player this month in what has been an incredible 12 hours for Liverpool fans.
Out of seemingly nowhere, Liverpool were able to swoop in and agree a deal for the Colombian forward while Tottenham Hotspur looked to secure his signature.
However, the player reportedly preferred a move to Jurgen Klopp's Reds, effectively forcing their hand to make a move.
The club have now reportedly sent a delegation team to Argentina to meet him, as he travels with the Colombian national team after facing Peru this evening.
A medical will be held in Argentina, in the hope to secure his signature before the Monday deadline.

It's been an incredible rise for the Porto winger.
Playing in the second tier of Colombia just four years ago, Diaz has established himself as arguably the top player in Primeria Liga in Portugal - now securing his dream move.
It's a far cry from the life Diaz had lived as a young boy in Colombia - growing up in a small village, Barrancas, amongst the Wayuu tribe of the indigenous people in South America.
Diaz had always been a talented footballer, playing in the streets and impressing scouts who had become aware of his talents.
As a 17-year-old, Diaz was included in Colombia's 22-man squad for the 2015 Copa Americana de Pueblos Indigenas - a South American football tournament for indigenous people.
It was in that tournament, where a certain Colombian legend would witness him play.
Carlos Valderrama described him as a 'young Lionel Messi' - as word reached a number of clubs in Colombia.
Diaz would immediately join one of nation's top clubs in Atletico Junior, before being assigned to a local farm team - Barranquilla FC.
During his time there, he suffered from malnutrition - something which had been evident whilst playing in the tournament - and was put on a strict diet plan to gain one stone.
He'd only remain in Colombia for three more years, before earning a move to Porto in 2019 - following in the footsteps of fellow Colombians Radamel Falcao, Jackson Martinez and James Rodriguez.
And after two seasons, Diaz had become noticed by big teams across Europe.
However, it's been this season which has seen him take the leap to an elite-level player - scoring 16 goals and adding six assists so far for Porto.
Jurgen Klopp had been a known admirer of the 25-year-old, with many believing a move in the 2022 summer would be likely.
But once Tottenham's interest became known, Liverpool clearly did not want to miss out and let him join a rival club.
Now, Liverpool are set to spend £49 million - a big sign of Klopp's belief in the young Colombian.
The club have until 11pm on Monday to wrap up the deal.
