Manager Jürgen Klopp has emphasized that the decision to play is up to Diaz and that they will not force anything. Liverpool dedicated their recent Premier League victory over Forest to Diaz.
Colombian authorities have offered a reward for his father’s safe return. CCTV footage showed the Díazes being followed by men on motorbikes before being accosted at a petrol station. Police have been searching for Diaz in the mountainous Serranía del Perijá area. Despite promises of release, Diaz’s father remains a hostage.
