‘I’ll Believe It When I See It’ ‘Absolutely No Idea Why We Would Want Him’ Fans Discuss Reports Of Liverpool’s Interest In 68M Spanish Star

Liverpool and Arsenal are reportedly competing for the signature of Villarreal winger Yeremy Pino.

There have been a number of claims made about the Reds either registering their interest in the Spanish international or even making a bid, but fans on Twitter are very sceptical about the Reds’ pursuit of the player:

Pino has an €80m (£68m) release clause and, while Villarreal may be open to selling the teenager for below that figure, he would still be a costly purchase.

Considering he is a right-footed winger, he is not exactly someone that Liverpool really need, especially with the likes of Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota already in the squad.

It has been speculated that Pino could be brought in as a potential long-term replacement for Mo Salah but the club’s recruitment staff would probably prefer a forward who is stronger on his left side.

At the moment, it does appear as if Arsenal are more likely to make a formal bid for the 19-year-old anyway, so the chances of him moving to Anfield look pretty slim.
