Luis Diaz: Liverpool make move for Porto and Colombia wingerBy Mandeep Sanghera
BBC Sport
Liverpool are trying to sign Colombia winger Luis Diaz from Porto in the current transfer window. The deal, if completed, is expected to be worth ?45m (£37m) plus a maximum of ?15m in potential bonuses. Liverpool were planning to wait until the summer but that changed as it became clear that if they did not act now the player would move elsewhere. The 25-year-old had been linked with a move to Tottenham, who reportedly had a bid of around £38m rejected.
Diaz was Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp's first choice for the summer when the asking price would have been ?60 million (£49.9m).
However, the proposed move is far from straightforward as Diaz is currently with his national team.
If the deal is completed this window, it will be seen as a big coup for Julian Ward, who will take over as Liverpool sporting director when Michael Edwards leaves in the summer.
Ward had led on the move for Diaz, while Edwards has played an important role in support.
