“We will wait to see how he is and go from there,” Klopp said.

“We will not force the situation – it’s out of our hands,” he added.

“If he feels right, he will train with us. When he’s with the boys he’s fine but you can tell he hasn’t slept a lot.”

The Colombian government has revealed that left wing forces are the culprit behind Diaz’ father kidnapping. It is believed that a representative of theirs has given information that Diaz will be released.

His son Luis Diaz has missed Liverpool previous 2 games as a consequence.
