How Liverpool 'backdoored' Tottenham to win battle for Luis Diaz - and outflanked Daniel Levy | @SamWallaceTel

When Daniel Levy found out that Liverpool were hijacking a move for Luis Diaz he threatened to report LFC’s recruitment staff to John Henry and Mike Gordon. The key flaw in that plan being that Henry and Gordon were delighted with the strategy pursued.

Liverpool’s recruitment team asked that they could be informed of any negotiations between Porto and Spurs. They told the players’ representatives they would take any Spurs deal for Diaz to Fenway for consideration.

Once a deal was agreed with Spurs, Liverpool were given sight of the deal. Ward and Edwards, working closely with Dave Fallows, the head of recruitment, moved quickly. FSG agreed to pay the fee.

Diaz and his representatives told Porto that Liverpool were the preferred destination. A transfer agreement was in place by the end of Thursday.

A FaceTime call between Jurgen Klopp and Luis Diaz was sanctioned by Porto last week and the pair met remotely. Diaz was in the Colombia team hotel in the city of Barranquilla. Klopp was on Merseyside. They got on well. [telegraph]

"While that [£90m] may seem likely to price him [Jude Bellingham] out of what FSG usually do, his age and profile, as well as an amortisation cost of £18m over the course of a five-year deal - the longer the better - means that it is something that is achievable." [@LivEchoLFC]

"The Diaz move, it is hoped, will mark the first of a few key additions in 2022. The money is there to fund investment into the squad this summer..." [@LivEchoLFC]

The futures of Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are less than certain. Others, such as Joe Gomez and Neco Williams, may need to make tough decisions too. [Neil Jones]

Joj za Williana je saga bila, uzese ga debili ispred nosa.

Jurgen Klopp is confident Mo Salah will stay at Liverpool amid his contract impasse. [the athletic]

Liverpool still retain an interest in Fulham midfielder Fabio Carvalho. The club’s recruitment staff are monitoring the teenager’s situation closely. If Fulham decide to cash in before the deadline then Liverpool will have a decision to make.

But, as things stand, the player will be staying put until his contract expires in the summer [the athletic]

Nat Phillips was expected to move on in this transfer window, but so far no one has been willing to meet the club’s £15 million valuation. [the athletic]
