Klopp and Luis Diaz share emotional moment as player calls for kidnappers to release father

Jurgen Klopp hugged Luis Diaz on the pitch after the Liverpool winger raised his shirt to reveal a message calling for the release of his kidnapped father.

The 26-year-old’s were kidnapped at gunpoint in Colombia last week - Diaz’s mother has been found, but his father is still missing.

Diaz lifted up his shirt to reveal a message calling for “Libertad Para Papa” (freedom for papa) after coming off the bench to score a stoppage-time equaliser in a 1-1 draw at Luton on Sunday, 5 November.

Footage showed Klopp embracing Diaz afterwards.
