Jurgen Klopp’s side signed the Colombian winger towards the end of the January transfer window, fending off strong interest from Tottenham Hotspur in the process.
Luis Diaz said: “It’s a club that I’ve followed for a good while now, and I’ve always watched them play. It’s no secret that the Premier League is one of the best leagues around and I’ve followed the football here and watched it since I was a boy. And as for Liverpool, I don’t think I need to say much about them that hasn’t been said. It’s a great club, a real reference in the game, which has won many cups and league titles, and so Liverpool has always been my choice. Liverpool games, it is hard to say exactly how many I’ve watched – I think I’ve seen about five this season. I’ve seen all of their Champions League games, but I was focused more on Porto during this time. I almost always tried to watch Liverpool’s big games when I could because they are normally involved in the big matches – and the Premier League obviously has lots and lots of important, entertaining games. For me, it is the perfect team and my decision to come here was a little bit based on that. I knew the team’s style of play would be helpful to me, that it would help me a lot. This is an important moment for me and it is all about working 100 per cent because the first thing is being available and being fully match-fit so that I can produce and perform out there on the field.”
Liverpool still have plenty to play for this season, and there is an expectation that Diaz could have a significant role between now and May. Manchester City remain within reach in the Premier League title race, meanwhile there are hopes that another memorable European campaign could be in store.

Luis Diaz added: “I’m committed to being available from today, the very first day I’ve arrived. I’ve already trained a bit today, I was out on the pitch and then in the gymnasium. So yes, my mindset is that I’m ready to help out my team and do my bit and contribute, as you said. I’m available to the manager and his coaching staff for whatever they need me for, and I’ll be ready to go whenever.”
