Liverpool are in pole position to sign Luis Diaz after making a late £45m swoop for the Porto winger, who prefers a move to Jurgen Klopp’s side rather than Tottenham.
The Colombia international was manager Jurgen Klopp’s first-choice for the summer transfer window, but Liverpool have accelerated their plans due to Spurs’ strong interest.
Liverpool are said to be offering an initial £37m, with bonuses included in the deal that will only be triggered if Diaz becomes a big success at Anfield.

This is an amazing signing for anyone.. This guy has all the class a player could ask for, he also has football intelligence.. Great signing for Liverpool, he will fit in perfectly….
Why would anyone want to play under Conte, he's a serial quitter..
My grandad could move faster than him, although my grandad wanted 61 million euros to sign..
I told him. "Grandad just take your ten woodbines and bottle of old spice to sign."
But alas greed got the better of him. ?
Better than Jack Grealish ?
You guys don't know how good he really is. Only Salah is better than him, he outclasses Jota and Mane. You wil see.
Diaz can become an absolute star under Klopp. Wishing him the best of luck.
I love how he says conte is fully aware that it will take more than one window….. spurs fans need to stop panicking let's embrace bentacur and kulusevski for the time being
As a big Porto fan, I can speak for everyone else that we're not happy with this transfer. Luis Diaz should have never been let go for 55 Million Euros. This is absolutely embarrassing!!! The price should have been 140 Million Euros. Take it or leave it! Period! Of course Liverpool is happy now and getting an amazing player for almost nothing! That's right, Luis Diaz is worth much more than what he was sold for! It's pathetic! We wonder if the Janitor who cleans the stadium is making these decisions? Maybe our President Mr. Pinto da Costa should step aside and allow someone who still has their brain cells in tact to take over. Rumor has it that the club needs money but their selling their best players for pathetic amounts. This is absolutely ridiculous!
Jamie's birthday and Luiz confirmed number is 23. Cheers ?
If Spurs really wanted him why did they think just matching LFC's bid would be enough? As if they are a better option right now?
Imagine thinking it necessary to include "Player prefers Klopp's side over Spurs" in the video title…. 😉
I reckon only two reasons would sway a player towards Spurs in a similar scenario:
1. Pursuit of money
2. Feelings of inadequacy competing for a starting berth
Conte hahaha… Poor bloke looks so depressed!! He must be thinking "why the f++k did I take this job"
Was it just me or did Conte look like he wanted to burst into tears ?
Spurs or Liverpool….no contest really ….going to be a great signing….ynwa …
spurs wasn't matching LIVERPOOL as they actually offered slightly less money in terms of the upfront payment and the add ons
Diaz must be over the moon that liverpool have came in for him….imagine having to play for Tottenham ???
LADS….haha
??
Hope he likes sitting on the bench.
He is far to good to go to a mediocre team like Spurs who are specialists in failure and never ever win silverware. He is a CL player. I wish him the best of luck at Anfield. Great purchase and great value. Shrewd purchase indeed
Is he a Tottenham fan or what!!!
FANTASTIC
As always, it sucks to be Spurs!
Liverpool should also sign Antony for Mo replacement
Oh yeahhh!
Can i just ask, ive recently been rather distracted and have not been keeping up with the transfer window, but dont we need a midfielder more urgently than a winger? Im not criticizing this deal if it gets done, i just hope we can also bring in someone to replace Gini long term
My past experiences with Club's transfer history is telling me not to get too excited about it.
It ain't done… until it's done ;P
I can’t believe Porto is gonna let him leave for that cheap, while other team in Portugal sell flops for 100 million
Liverpool will truly be unstoppable with him. I’m a Newcastle fan and I can admit that
So this means salah leaves in the summer ?
Spurs should give up the chase then lol
i died when man said you cant always be like bruno hahahahaha
He wants to be on the winning side in next years champions league ?
40 Million is a drop in the ocean in today's times, is an absolute bargain for a proper quality and virtuos player and tbh negotiations stink a little bit. FC Porto as seen have seen lesser players come out for much more €€ ?
I guess another 2:2 draw between LFC and Spurs will not happen again.
John Henry [FSG] WILL spend, prudently & guided by JK [will he fit in LFC style].
NEVER GIVE UP!!!! YNWA
I don't know if you noticed but Fabinho, Thiago Jota and now Luis Diaz. Not a scent of superbly hyped instagram posts or like months of speculations or rumours; just get in, swift and grab a player. Other PL top teams should really step up the transfer game, ManUtd for example had an entire saga on Sancho.
Wow as a Colombian i feel me so happy, Luchito would be the first Colombian to play for Liverpool.
What's the name of the lady sitting opposite to Emma? And where is she from? I like her accent: I am, naturally, a native English speaker.
If… If… If….. Please don't use if. When it history.
Two transfers busted at the last minute in two days. Poor Spurs ?
