Three Liverpool journalists confirm rough price-tag attached to Luis Diaz deal at 7AM | OneFootball

Three prominent Liverpool journalists – including Goal’s Neil Jones, The Times’ Paul Joyce and the Echo’s Paul Gorst – have confirmed the club is attempting to sign Luis Diaz before the winter winter draws to a close next Monday.

The trio have confirmed that the club is looking to finalise a deal worth roughly £37.5m for the Colombian’s services.

Tottenham were also reportedly interested in the 25-year-old with some claiming that the Merseysiders have acted reactively to Spurs’ escalated interest.

With all three journalists throwing their weight behind the deal in question, we can safely say that Liverpool’s interest – not to mention our intention to act on said interest – is very real.

It’s interesting timing from us given that we’ll be expecting to have the likes of Mo Salah and Sadio Mane back with the club following the end of the winter break having theoretically passed the point in the season in which emergency reinforcements were needed.

Nonetheless, it’s some quality cover down the left-flank that we could secure before the window closes, whilst also helping safeguard the future of the forward line.
