These Liverpool fans believe RB Salzburg’s Takumi Minamino could be the missing piece of the puzzle for Jurgen Klopp’s side.

Minamino must have impressed these fans when the 24-year-old played against them in RB Salzburg’s UEFA Champions League clash with Liverpool, a game his side lost 2-0. The Japanese midfielder has scored two goals in the Champions League and five in the T-Mobile Bundesliga in Austria, where he plays alongside highly rated Erling Haaland.

Here are some of the fans who were calling for Jurgen Klopp to swoop in on Minamino:

One fan even called him a Roberto Firmino/Son Heung-Min type player, which is rather accurate as all three men use quick feet and look to create in the final third, as well as having the ability to find the back of the net.


Would you rather sign Minamino or Haaland?

Despite failing to score or assist against Liverpool, Miniamino must have still impressed these fans with his technical ability and speed. Whoscored rated his performance 6.6/10, that’s about average for a 2-0 loss.


What Do We Think?

With Takumi Minamino’s Transfermarkt value being just £4.5m, this could be an absolute steal for Liverpool and he is a player who could be very useful as a back up for Roberto Firmino, due to playing in a similar role. Whether Klopp sees the Japan international fitting into the plans he has for his Anfield outfit, though, remain to be seen, whilst Salzburg are unlikely going to roll over should the Reds look to take him off their hands.
