Some Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation regarding Domenico Berardi.

What’s the story?

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport (print edition, page 11, June 18, 2021), Liverpool are interested in signing Berardi from Sassuolo in the summer transfer window.

We covered the report here on HITC Sport.

Sassuolo will demand as much as €50 million (£42.95 million) as transfer fee for Berardi.

What are Liverpool fans saying?

However, some Liverpool fans are against the prospect of signing Berardi this summer, as you can see below.

Some supporters of the Merseyside club would actually prefer the club to bring in Raphinha from Leeds United to Anfield to the signing of Berardi.

The Mirror reported in March interest from Liverpool in the 24-year-old Brazilian.

However, just days later, Leeds Director of Football Victor Orta dismissed suggestions that the club will sell the winger this summer.
