Liverpool fans on Twitter have been responding to the latest transfer rumour surrounding the Merseyside club.
This comes after Liverpool news Twitter account @LFCTransferRoom shared a post on their page relaying news originally posted in a video by Os Donos Da Bola as cited by Sport Witness.
The video claims that Liverpool are leading the race for 17-year-old Vasco da Gama forward Talles Magno. The Reds were the first to move for the player, who has made multiple appearances for Brazil’s youth team which will benefit his possibility to get a working permit.
This post then gathered a number of replies from Liverpool fans who were quick to share their thoughts on this latest news.

Seriously doubt Liverpool invest much in players from South America given the rumored post-Brexit work permit requirements. Waste of time and money
