Luis Diaz discusses ‘dream come true’ move to Liverpool and growth at Anfield

Luis Diaz has called representing Liverpool a ‘dream come true’ and opened up on his growth as a footballer since moving to Anfield.

The Colombia international has made a bright start to the new season and has scored twice in four Premier League appearances, having returned to full fitness after an injury-hit 2022/23 campaign.

 

Diaz hopes he can remain fit for the coming campaign as he looks to realise ‘even more dreams’ on Merseyside.

“It’s something I’m very proud of, being at such a massive club as this one,” he said, as per the club’s official website.

“I am incredibly pleased to be here, very much at ease and really happy. I always try to enjoy every minute. I’ve got some great teammates and I play alongside some big-name players, who at one time I used to watch playing on TV.

“So for me this really is like a dream come true and let’s hope I can keep realising even more of those dreams and continue with the successes I’ve known up to now.”

Diaz has impressed since his arrival into the Premier League from FC Porto and has opened up on where he has improved since signing for Liverpool.

“I’d say that since being here I’ve gained in intensity and have a bit more aggression about me.

“Maybe I was developing those things at Porto already because I learned an awful lot in those aspects there too. When you come over to Europe, you work a lot more on those facets of your game, being aggressive.

“I learnt a lot about decision-making too and being more relaxed when a chance comes around. I think I’ve grown both in football terms and on a personal level, and all that makes me very happy.”
