Jurgen Klopp Liverpool
New Liverpool signing Luis Diaz has sent a message to Porto fans after he completed a £49million move to Anfield. Liverpool swooped to secure the signature of the Colombian after he was the subject of a bid from Tottenham Hotspur just days earlier. Diaz and Porto rejected Tottenham’s advances as he had his heart set on a move to the Reds – once he knew of their interest. The new Liverpool number 23 was loved amongst the Porto fans as he excited them with his skilful play and goals.
Luis Diaz said: “You are eternal to me. God thank you for bringing me to a club that became my home and my family’s. Thank you FC Porto, for taking back the best memories of a full Dragao… the noise, the emotion, the affection and the unconditional support, are unique sensations that I will always remember. Thank you President for betting on me. Thank you mister for what I have learned. Thanks to my team-mates because in football nothing can be done alone. Thanks to the fans who always encouraged me. To the city of Porto and for having the greatest gift, my daughter Rome, it is and will be the home of my family. Thank you to my wife, my parents and my family for being the pillar that has held me all these years, to my work team and all the people who believed in me. Thank you. I feel like one more Dragon and I will carry them in my blue and white heart.”
