A win⁤ in London is paramount for maintaining Liverpool’s led ⁢in ⁣the league.

Manager Arne Slot commented​ on Díaz’s versatility and potential role in the upcoming game, stating, “Lucho can play safely in that ⁣position and he did well for us.He played a few times, but not many, in Girona on ⁤the left. After Leverkusen, he has played more as a winger, but we have more options. Lucho is definitely also part of that position.”
