Some Celtic supporters on social media raised concerns about reported interest in Pedro Chirivella.
Celtic are reportedly frontrunners to sign Liverpool midfielder Pedro Chirivella this summer – and some of the club’s supporters have spoken out on Twitter to suggest they don’t want him.
The Bhoys are leading contenders to land the Spaniard on a £3.5million deal and the player wants to form a reunion with his ex-manager Brendan Rodgers, according to Goal.
It is reported that the Scottish champions are considered the most likely to land the 21-year-old ahead of interested clubs Nottingham Forest and Swansea, while he has already rejected a switch to Rosenborg.
Chirivella’s exit from Anfield appears on the cards this summer and Rodgers could end up landing a player that he gave a competitive debut to back in 2015.
He is a defensive midfielder that only has five first-team appearances for Premier League outfit Liverpool, but spent last season out on loan with Willem II.
The enforcer would have a tough battle on his hands of breaking into the starting XI if he moved to Parkhead, with Scott Brown and Olivier Ntcham two ever-presents in the centre of the park.
A selection of Celtic supporters don’t feel he could cut the grade in Scotland and one even compared the potential deal to Charly Musonda’s failed loan spell from Chelsea last season.
