Liverpool fans have been responding to Takumi Minamino’s first Twitter post as a Liverpool player.
This comes after the Japanese winger shared a post on his official Twitter page revealing his delight to being a part of the “Liverpool family” after Liverpool announced the agreement.

Are you glad to see Minamino in a Liverpool shirt?

What do we think?
Given Minamino’s strong record for Salzburg so far this season, it’s no surprise that lots of Liverpool fans are thrilled with his arrival at Anfield. In 22 appearances so far this season, Minamino has scored nine goals and picked up 11 assists (per TransferMarkt).
He is clearly delighted with his move to Liverpool and fans have every right to be excited, but they now face a wait until the 1st of January when he arrives at Anfield.
