REVEALED: Jurgen Klopp 'facetimed Luis Diaz in his hotel in Colombia to convince him to join Liverpool... and furious Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy considered REPORTING Reds transfer chiefs to John Henry' after missing out on signing the winger
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy reportedly considered reporting the behaviour of Liverpool staff to the Reds’ owners after Spurs were beaten to the signing of Luis Diaz.
- Liverpool have signed Luis Diaz, 25, from Porto in a deal worth up to £50million
- Tottenham believed that they had agreed to sign the Colombian last week
- But the Reds snatched him from under Spurs' noses leaving Daniel Levy fuming
- The Tottenham chairman threatened to report the behaviour of Liverpool staff
- Jurgen Klopp facetimed Diaz and the pair got on well, with a deal then agreed
The Colombian winger completed a move to Anfield from Porto on Sunday morning in a deal worth up to £50million. He has signed a five-year contract on Merseyside.
It shows just how quickly things can move in the final few days of the transfer window, as Tottenham previously believed they had wrapped up a deal to sign Diaz.
According to the Telegraph, Spurs had agreed a €45million (£37.5million) deal with Porto last week, along with around €15million (£12.5million) of add-ons.
However, the report adds that Liverpool – who had asked to be informed of any move Tottenham made – acted quickly to match those figures and also agreed to pay €8million (£6.5million) by this coming Monday to sweeten the arrangement.
A FaceTime call between Diaz and Jurgen Klopp was then reportedly arranged – with the 25-year-old currently away on international duty with Colombia – and that the pair got on well.
By the end of Thursday, Diaz had informed Porto that Liverpool was his preferred destination and a deal was agreed with the Reds.
The Telegraph claim that upon hearing of the winger’s U-turn, Spurs chairman Levy tried desperately to regain the advantage in negotiations and also threatened to report Liverpool’s recruitment staff to the Reds’ owners John W Henry and Mike Gordon.
But he was unsuccessful on both counts. Not only had Diaz decided on an Anfield switch, but Henry and Gordon had no issues with the way Liverpool went about the deal.
Diaz is the second major signing that Tottenham have missed out on this month, after also seeing Barcelona snatch Wolves winger Adama Traore from under their noses.
The clock is now ticking for Levy and Antonio Conte to add to the Spurs squad ahead of Monday’s transfer deadline.
Fuck me reminds me of Sanchez
Paqueta looked awesome at Copa America.
This article sounds like total bollocks, why would Levy complain to Henry about it? Just made up nonsense from the papers.Here is a bit about the Diaz deal. It clearly shows there were something "dirty" going on behind the scene...

You brought it up up mate....... And it's very much the new misery-meme.
I didn't question the rest of your post.
So you believe that club owners and agents are angels who would never resort to deceptions and trickery when it comes to making deals?
