Media watchLiverpool make £49m Luis Diaz transfer bid
Liverpool have moved to hijack Tottenham Hotspur's bid for Luis Diaz, making an offer close to £50million for the Porto winger.

Liverpool are looking to pay an initial fee of £37m with a further £12m in add-ons for a player who Jürgen Klopp had identified as a first-choice option for the summer of 2022.
