Some Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation linking the Reds with Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford.
According to The Athletic, Liverpool admire Leeds star Bamford, with manager Jurgen Klopp having raved about him this season.
The report has added that Bamford signed an extension to his contract last summer, which means that the 27-year-old is tied to Leeds until the summer of 2023.
Some Liverpool fans have given their take on links with Leeds star Bamford.
Below are some of the best comments on Twitter:
It seems that (some) Liverpool fans are against the prospect of Bamford joining the Reds this summer.
The striker seems happy at Elland Road, and there are no suggestions that he wants to leave.
Moreover, Leeds are unlikely to sell the 27-year-old. After all, the former Chelsea and Nottingham Forest striker is their main goalscorer.
The Englishman has found the back of the net 15 times in the Premier League this season, and has also provided seven assists.
Bamford is not at the level of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane or Roberto Firmino, but the striker – who cost Leeds £7 million in transfer fees when they signed him from Middlesbrough in the summer of 2018, as reported by Sky Sports – works hard for the team, presses high, and links up well with his teammates.
If Liverpool signed Bamford this summer, then it is unlikely that he would start week in week out.
What the striker would do is give Liverpool manager Klopp a valuable option in the squad.
