Luis Diaz’s father celebrated his 55th birthday on Sunday, and Liverpool generously arranged for him and his entire family to travel to Merseyside for the holiday season, which was a deeply meaningful experience for them.
After the unfortunate incident involving Luis Manuel Diaz and his wife Cilenis Marulanda in Colombia, the team has offered comprehensive support to their seventh member.
While Diaz’s mother, Marulanda, was promptly rescued, Diaz Sr. endured over a fortnight in captivity under the control of terrorists before eventually being freed.
Subsequently, he was reunited with his child and had the opportunity to observe Colombia’s triumphant victory over Brazil at Barranquilla, where he himself scored two goals. Subsequently, he and his family traveled by air to Liverpool.
The Diaz family will be celebrating Christmas on Merseyside, therefore the club has arranged for a private plane to transport them. Diaz Sr. observed Saturday’s 1-1 tie against Manchester City from the spectator area.
In addition, Diaz’s father turned fifty-five the following day, resulting in a festive atmosphere at the Liverpool winger’s residence.
Gera Ponce, Diaz’s wife, organized the celebration that brought together Diaz Sr. and Marulanda together with their children, including Jesus and Roller as well as their sister Anny.
Diaz Sr. expressed gratitude on Instagram, acknowledging God for granting him the opportunity to commemorate another year of existence.
“I am grateful to my daughter-in-law, wife, children, and family for giving me the opportunity to enjoy this delightful day in this way.”
“May divine blessings be bestowed upon you. My affection for you remains steadfast.”
While the exact duration of their stay in the UK is uncertain, it is anticipated that the Diaz family will stay in Merseyside for the Christmas period and potentially extend their visit into the New Year.
Jurgen Klopp discussed the club’s responsibility in guaranteeing the safe return of Diaz Sr., his spouse, and their offspring following the draw at the Etihad on Saturday.
During an interview with Sky Sports, he remarked that now that they are arrived, he will have further opportunities to share moments.
I derive joy from the harmonious reunion of the family and their overall well-being. The club was highly advantageous to them; it was exceptional.
“The situation was devoid of any positive aspects, characterized by its terrible qualities. However, the group’s response was exceptional.”
It is commendable that they have ultimately arrived. Undoubtedly, it is an excellent choice for the entire family over the Christmas season.
