Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to respond to the latest transfer rumour linking the club with a move for Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior.
This comes after Liverpool fan Twitter account @AnfieldEdition shared a post on their page relaying news originally published in a report by Spanish outlet Diario Madridista via The Express.
The report claims that Jurgen Klopp has “identified” the winger “as his top target this summer after missing out on signing him last year.”
Is Vinicius Junior good enough for Liverpool?
Yes, he's class
No, he's not good enough
The report also claimed that the club will “offer the Brazilian regular football but he is currently keen to stay and fight for his future.”
This post then gathered a number of replies from Liverpool fans who were eager to have their say on this latest rumour.

The 19-year-old winger is currently valued at £45 million according to Transfermarkt. Vinicius is having a fairly disappointing season at the Spanish club so far with a current season rating of 6.69/10, making him the 19th highest rated player at the club so far (per WhoScored). Now that this report has made its way on to Twitter, this has opened the door for lots of Liverpool fans to share their thoughts on a potential move for the Brazilian.
I’d be very suprised to see this happen, just can’t see it

The Express have no idea at all about what is happening inside Liverpool. They will litterally print anything. If they are saying it you almost guarantee its not happening.

What do we think?
Given how Vinicius has only managed to score four goals and provide three assists in 28 appearances so far this season for Madrid, it’s no surprise that so many Liverpool fans have been saying how much they don’t want their club to make a move for the winger.
