Liverpool could be set to hand minutes to January transfer window signing, Luis Diaz, at Anfield for the Reds’ upcoming FA Cup fourth round clash with Cardiff City.
This comes after reliable Times journalist, Paul Joyce, reported in a tweet that the Colombian had been included in Jurgen Klopp’s squad for the tie in question.

The Reds face the Welsh outfit off the back of a convincing 4-1 win over Shrewsbury Town in the prior round after going a goal down early.
It’s a massive indication of faith in the Colombian winger, who only arrived in Merseyside on Thursday after some time spent with the international side for a few World Cup qualifiers.
Bearing qualities that many deem more than suitable for a Klopp outfit, it’s possible that the German and his coaching staff feel our latest signing could adapt more quickly than some.
That being said, we’d be surprised to see the No.23 start up top and would expect a cameo to be a far more realistic prospect for the winger.
