The Colombia international has signed a five-and-a-half year deal at Anfield after completing a medical in Argentina.
Liverpool have completed the signing of Porto winger Luis Diaz, in a deal worth £50million (€60m/$67m).
The Colombian international has signed a five-and-a-half-year deal having undergone a medical in Argentina on Saturday, and will wear the No.23 shirt at Anfield.
The Reds will pay an initial fee of £37.5m (€45m/$50m) for the 25-year-old, with an additional £12.5m (€15m/$17m) in performance-related add-ons.
Klopp expressed his delight after Diaz's arrival at Anfield, telling the Reds' official website: “I could not be happier that we’ve been able to get this deal done and bring Luis to Liverpool.
“He is an outstanding player and someone we’ve been tracking for a very long time.
“We believe he has everything needed to fit into our way and adapt to the Premier League, both physically and mentally. He is a player who is hungry for success and knows you have to fight to get what you want. He is a fighter, no doubt. He’s a skilful team player who has always the goal in mind.
“This team deserved to add quality and when we played against Luis earlier this season, we saw what a danger he is, how fast he is and how his mentality was to help his team.
“Luis is a player we believe will make us better now and in the future."
