Jurgen Klopp could give £37.5m signing Luis Diaz his Liverpool debut in FA Cup tie against Cardiff on Sunday... just 48 hours after the Colombian arrived at the Reds' training base for the first time

Jurgen Klopp could give Luis Diaz an immediate introduction to Anfield after hailing the forward’s arrival as significant for Liverpool’s future.

Diaz, who Liverpool signed from Porto on deadline day for an initial £37.5million, only arrived on Merseyside at 10am yesterday after waiting for work permit forms in Paris. He started the week in Argentina, where he played in Colombia’s 1-0 defeat.

It has been a hectic time for the 25-year-old, who only met Klopp in person for the first time on Friday. Now he could be on the bench for tomorrow’s FA Cup fourth-round tie against Cardiff.
