Liverpool remain interested in making a move for Jurgen Klopp’s longstanding target Raphinha despite Luis Diaz’s addition to the Anfield ranks.
According to reports from The Athletic, it is claimed that the Merseyside bigwigs are keeping tabs on Raphinha’s situation at Elland Road with speculation rife over the winger’s future ahead of the summer.
With the star-studded trio of Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah turning 30 over the course of this campaign, Klopp could be forced to dip into the market for fresh reinforcements to add to his roster.
Diaz’s arrival at Anfield provides the Liverpool boss Klopp with a viable option in the final third of the pitch and the Columbia international made an instant impact in his debut outing on Sunday against Cardiff City in the FA Cup.
The Reds booked their spot in the fifth round of the cup competition and now gear up to play hosts to Leicester City in the Premier League with hopes of a win to keep pace with the league leaders Manchester City.
