Luis Diaz added to Liverpool squad on FIFA 22 as impressive rating confirmed

Following his £49 million transfer from FC Porto in January, new Liverpool winger Luis Diaz has now been added to the Reds' squad on FIFA 22.

Despite initial interest from Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool stole a march on the North London side by agreeing a deal that could rise to £49m with Porto last week, which includes an initial £37m with a further £12m in add ons, which saw the Reds clinch the signing on Sunday, January 30, 2022.

Diaz signed a five-year contract at Anfield, with the Colombian set to travel to Liverpool towards the end of this week once his international commitments are fulfilled.

EA Sports released a database update for FIFA 22 on Thursday, February 3, which transferred Diaz from Porto to Liverpool, with Reds fans now able to virtually select Diaz in online and offline game modes for Jurgen Klopp's side.

Now he's been added to the Liverpool squad, let's take a look at the 24-year-old's stats on FIFA 22.
