Liverpool players celebrated Christmas with a festive team-building activity, and Colombian winger Luis Díaz was the center of attention. As the team gears up for the crucial Boxing Day match against Leicester City, where they could clinch the winter title, the players took a break to exchange gifts.

In a video shared on social media, players were seen taking turns to select their presents from under the Christmas tree. When it was Díaz's turn, Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson guided him to a separate room where a special surprise awaited.

A Santa Claus doll began singing a fan-made song dedicated to Díaz, which has become a popular chant at Anfield: "We call him Lucho, he came from Porto, he came to score, came to score, came to score. He is Luis Díaz. He's from Barrancas and he plays for Liverpool."

The Colombian was visibly amused by the singing doll. However, the real surprise came when Trent Alexander-Arnold presented Díaz with a Christmas card. When Díaz opened the card, he was greeted with a hilarious throwback photo of himself from his early days in Colombian football, sporting a unique hairstyle.

The photo, which has often been used as a meme, left Díaz and his teammates in fits of laughter. Despite the playful ribbing, it was clear that the gift was a light-hearted way for the team to bond and celebrate the festive season.

The incident has quickly gone viral on social media, with fans from around the world enjoying the video. It's a testament to Díaz's popularity and the strong team spirit within the Liverpool squad.
