Liverpool fans on Twitter have been responding to the latest transfer update surrounding RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner.
This comes after Liverpool fan Twitter account @AnfieldEdition shared a post on their page relaying news originally posted in an article by Gazzetta dello Sport, following a report from the Daily Express.
The article claims that Liverpool are set to go head-to-head with Inter Milan in the race to sign Werner, with the striker open to a move to both due to their ambitions. However, with the Reds reluctant to pay €50m (£44.3m) amid the current crisis, Inter could have an advantage.
This post then gathered a lot of replies from Liverpool fans who were eager to have their say on this latest development.
Here’s a sample of Liverpool fans responding to the post:

LFC doing their due diligence in uncertain financial times. Patience required as the club, manager and player seem tailor made for each other.

Will Timo Werner be a Liverpool player next season?
Yes
No
The German striker is currently valued at £57.6 million according to Transfermarkt. Now that it has been reported that Inter Milan are in the race to secure Werner’s signature this summer, this paved the way for lots of Liverpool fans to have their say on the situation.
The man wants liverpool, not inter

The player wants #LFC, his club wants #LFC and #LFC are hoping to get a lower price in the end depending on where RBL finishes in the Bundesliga

We gotta sort this out! We spent nothing last season. Fair enough. But to say unwilling to pay $50m for a star in the making is a bit deluded. We need him! Get him and get it done soon!

What do we think?
It seems that despite interest from Antonio Conte’s side, these Liverpool fans still believe that Werner will make the move to Anfield this summer.
