Luis Díaz sinks the accelerator

Luis Díaz does not stop with his recovery and lives the last days of rehabilitation and strengthening of his left knee. The Colombian was injured in October last year, but during the World Cup break and while he was training with Liverpool in Dubai, things got worse and he had to go under the knife. Today, almost three months after the operation, his return is approaching.

The winger works double shifts at Liverpool’s training ground and at home, He is in physical reconditioning and the return to practice with his teammates is a matter of a week. According to Jürgen Klopp, Díaz would be on par with the squad on Monday, March 13. For this reason, his presence at the Santiago Bernabéu for the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 is ruled out. The Reds are losing the series 2-5 with Real Madrid.

From March 6 to 10, Lucho will have his last solo sessions, both in the gym and on the playing field. Then there will be a match against Bournemouth and at the beginning of the following week he will jump without problems to train alongside Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jordan Henderson, Mohamed Salah and the other stars of the team.
