‘Luis Díaz runs for the first time on Thursday’: Lijnders, assistant Klopp

Luis Díaz is counting down the days to get back on the pitch and help Liverpool in the Premier League, where his start has been so erratic that he is currently eighth out of European positions, with 19 points in 13 matches played.

The farmer, who suffered a knee injury on 9 October, made part of his recovery in Barranquilla, with the club’s approval, and returned to Liverpool on Monday. According to the set times, the winger should be fit after the World Cup, when he starts the decisive part of the season.

How is your recovery going exactly one month after you got the injury? What stage is it in? Pepijn Lijnders, technical assistant to Jürgen Klopp, gave an update on the injured, including the 25-year-old Colombian.

“Luis Díaz will run for the first time on Thursday. That is good news, because we all know how important it was last year and in the second half of the season,” emphasized Lijnders.

Times are going according to plan and if nothing out of the ordinary happens in the coming days, ‘Luchito’ could return on Boxing Day, December 26, when the ‘Reds’ take on Unay Emery’s Aston Villa.

The England team will take advantage of these days of stopping before the World Cup in Qatar to make the farmer a mini pre-season where he can return in the best physical shape and his performance is not affected by this injury accident.

Luis Díaz is the key figure in the scaffolding of a Liverpool that hopes to restore its best thrills in the decisive part of the season, where it will fight for the ‘Champions’ positions in the Premier League as the title falls on this At the moment it already seems utopian for the advantage taken by the championship leaders -Arsenal took 15 points and Manchester City 13-, and will face the main stage of the Champions League, where they will meet Real Madrid in the round of 16.
