Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson claims Luis Diaz is one of the best in the world
Following a horrific knee injury against Arsenal back in October, Liverpool winger Luis Diaz has had to sit out since.
Diaz’s national team Colombia failed to qualify for this year’s World Cup, and his captain at Liverpool, Jordan Henderson believes that it is sad that a top player like the former FC Porto winger is missing out on playing in the coveted tournament.
Here is what Hendo had to say to Win Sports (h/t Liverpool Echo):
“In the World Cup you want the best players in the world, and Luis Diaz is certainly one of them,” “He has lit up the Premier League since he came and it was a disappointing moment when he got an injury for us.
Diaz will be as hungry as ever and prove Hendo’s words about him and establish that he is truly one of the best players in the world.
Of course, you want the best players here.”
Diaz has for sure been one of Liverpool’s better players ever since his arrival back in January earlier this year.
The 25-year-old was among the Reds’ best players in the early weeks of the season, wherein the squad as a whole struggled to get going.
In 12 appearances across all competitions until his injury, Diaz had scored four goals and got three assists to boot as well.
