Amazing what happens when you scout properly and don’t make excuses about how difficult it is to sign players.

It was reported early on this week that Minamino is likely to make the move to Anfield from Red Bull Salzburg. Now with Pearce’s post revealing the details of the proposed move, some Liverpool fans think it’s a done deal.
Wow that is so good! I just wonder how long they wanted him. It seems Klopped admired him when he scored against us

Cracking investment

A hell of a bargain

What do we think?
To sign one of Salzburg’s best players for a fee of just £7.25 million would be an incredible bargain. In 22 appearances for the club in all competitions, the 24-year-old has managed to score nine goals and has picked up 11 assists along the way (per Transfermarkt). If the Japanese playmaker can continue this fine form for Jurgen Klopp’s side, he could prove to be one of the signings of the season for title-chasing Liverpool.
