If losing to Manchester United in the FA Cup quarter-finals wasn’t bad enough for Luis Diaz and Liverpool, the prospect of missing the next international break with Colombia is now a possibility for the winger.
The forward was subbed off in the 114th minute with some discomfort in his groin, which Jürgen Klopp backed up after the game, and now his country are worried.
AS cover the story, and the Liverpool manager’s quotes, who is hoping Diaz, Darwin Nuñez and Cody Gakpo, all with their separate ailments, will come back from the international duty healthy.
They add there is an ‘alarm’ going off in the Colombia national team, as the winger is a very important part of their setup, and other players have recently pulled out as well, with Yerry Mina, Ian Poveda and Cristian Borja needing to be replaced.
Noticias Caracol also have an article on the subject, and explain it is ‘not yet confirmed’ whether the injury is serious.
His situation is ‘pending’, likely awaiting the results of some tests before it a lengthy spell on the sidelines will happen.
Diaz started the game for Liverpool against Manchester United, and was one of the more threatening players for the Reds during the game, but he wasn’t able to influence the game with a goal or an assists before coming off late in extra-time, a few minutes before Amad Diallo’s winner.
