Some Liverpool and Barcelona fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation regarding the future of Ousmane Dembele.

According to Sport, Liverpool are interested in securing the services of the France international forward on a loan deal form Barcelona this summer.

The report in the Spanish publication has claimed that the Premier League champions want to bring the 23-year-old to Anfield on a loan deal.

The Reds are claimed to have been in contact with Barcelona, and are ready to pay a loan fee and the Frenchman’s salary.

Dembele is a very talented and promising young forward, but he has had injury problems during his time at Barcelona so far.

A loan deal for the 23-year-old would make sense for Liverpool, especially as they have invested £41 million to sign Portugal international winger Diogo Jota from Wolverhampton Wanderers, according to BBC Sport, and there is no point in signing another attack-minded player on a permanent contract.

Liverpool do have a very good attacking unit, and with Jota coming in, it will become better, but there is always room for quality players, and Dembele on a loan move would make the Reds’ squad bigger and stronger, especially as the Merseyside club will be aiming to win the Premier League and the Champions League this season.

Some Liverpool and Barcelona fans have given their take on speculation on the future of Dembele, and below are some of the best comments on Twitter.
