The Colombian star Louis Diaz, the Liverpool wing, sparked a wave of anger and controversy on social media, after appearing in a video clip during his participation in a social dance occasion in Colombia, in conjunction with the funeral ceremonies of his late colleague Dyou Jota.
Wide mass criticism
The video spread quickly on social platforms, in which Diaz dances with a number of local influencers during his summer vacation. A state of resentment prevailed among the Liverpool fans, especially from the Spanish accounts of Spanish, considering that the behavior lacked human responsibility at a time when the team’s system of mourning lived on the departure of Gota after a tragic traffic accident in Spain.
One of the mass accounts wrote: “There is no justification for this behavior. Deep disappointment. Louis Diaz should leave Liverpool. ”

Official silence
Until the moment, no comment from the player or from the Liverpool club management was issued about the circulating video, which increased the criticism and opening the door for speculation about possible repercussions on Diaz’s relationship with the team’s fans and teammates in the dressing room.
A previous human relationship
The accident gave a more sensitive dimension, especially since Jota was one of the most prominent supporters of the Colombian player during his family crisis when his father was kidnapped in October 2023, where he showed public solidarity at the time by raising the Diaz shirt during a match. Many considered that Diaz’s last position was not a fulfillment of the relationship that brought together the players.
Diaz’s march with Liverpool
Louis Diaz joined Liverpool from Porto Porto in the summer of 2022, and has since participated in 148 games, during which he scored 48 goals and made 23, but he is now facing a test outside the field that requires clarification to restore the confidence of a club from the club’s fans.
