Luis Diaz continues to work on his recovery and according to some people close to the player and Liverpool, it is going very well. The Colombian player aims to be ready after the World Cup in Qatar 2022 and hopes to be present in the game against Manchester City for the Carabao Cup, which will be played on 22 December.

The Colombian player, who had been one of the main protagonists in Jürgen Klopp's team, suffered a knee injury in the match against Arsenal on 9 October in the Premier League. Medical tests determined that the player would be out of action for at least the remainder of 2022. However, the former Junior de Barranquillo player has been working on his recovery and his feelings are getting better and better.
