Liverpool striker Luis Diaz recently returned to training after suffering an injury that kept him out of action for six months. The Colombian player is still recovering but is already in good form.
Nevertheless, the 26-year-old will not be available to play against Arsenal next Sunday. His manager Jurgen Klopp prefers the striker to wait until the next Premier League game against Leeds United.
The German coach said at Sunday's pre-match press conference that Diaz is unlikely to play: "The plan with Luis is that he will be available 100 per cent for Leeds," he said.
"Again, it looks good, everything is fine, but it was a long, long injury and so we have to be careful. We will probably not involve him for Sunday."
