Luis Diaz has plenty he wants to accomplish in the Premier League.

That means he could be staying at Liverpool for a little longer yet.

The 28-year-old has played a crucial part in the Reds' domestic dominance this season, as they've surged to a 13-point lead at the top of the table.

Diaz has netted 13 times in all competitions, occupying a position both on the left flank and through the middle.

The Colombian's work-rate and intelligent runs have made him an ideal foil for the sensational Mohamed Salah in attack.

Ahead of the campaign there was plenty of speculation about the forward and in recent weeks he has been linked with a transfer away again.

However, speaking with Liverpool club media, Diaz has outlined some of his ambitions for the future, which would require him staying put at Anfield.

"Now and again, I find out about the stats when people post them on social media," he said about currently being the fourth-highest scoring Colombian in Premier League history.

"But how nice it is to be getting close to such great fellow Colombian players like Hugo [Rodallega] and all the others.

"It's a real pleasure for me to be right there close behind them and I realise that maybe I will catch them at some point.

Diaz has 25 for the Reds, putting him behind Rodallega (29) and Hamilton Ricard (31).

Diaz also spoke openly about the manner in which Slot has rotated his attacking options this season.

While Salah has been a mainstay, the likes of Diaz, Cody Gakpo, Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez have all frequently rotated in the front line.

7 says he doesn't envy the decisions Slot has to make sometimes.

"He's known just exactly how to manage the group and every single player that he has in the squad because it cannot be easy for any coach when he has two or three excellent alternatives for each position on the field to make decisions on who to play and who to leave out.

"It's not an easy task but he's been up to it and he's also given confidence to every single player in his squad."

Diaz came close to league and Champions League glory in his first season with the Reds after signing in January, although narrowly missed out on both after success in the Carabao Cup and FA Cup.
