Fuming Tottenham chief Daniel Levy reportedly threatened to REPORT Liverpool’s recruitment staff to their owners to try and stop the Reds signing Luis Diaz.

Levy was said to be incensed when he heard the Reds had courted Tottenham’s top transfer target.

And he frantically tried to stop it by threatening to expose Liverpool’s recruitment staff’s tactics to the club’s owners John W Henry and Mike Gordon, according to The Telegraph.

But Levy’s desperate attempt to get the Reds to back down had no effect as Henry and Gordon had no issues with their staff’s conduct.

Meanwhile, another report claim that last week Jurgen Klopp FaceTimed the 25-year-old to persuade him to join the Reds.

The call had obviously gone well as Luiz later informed Porto that his preferred choice of club would be Liverpool.

According to MailOnline, the pair got on ‘very well’.
