Some Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation that Nuno’s Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly set to sign Reds’ target Adama Traore.
What’s the story?
90min have reported that Traore is set to join Tottenham from Wolves this summer.
Tottenham will sign the former Aston Villa winger on loan with an obligation to make the deal permanent next summer for £40 million.
Liverpool are also interested in Traore, according to the report, but the Merseyside club do not want to pay £40 million for the 25-year-old winger.
The Times have reported that Tottenham’s initial offer of a £5 million loan fee with an option to buy has been turned down, as Wolves want guaranteed sale either this summer or the next.
What are Liverpool fans saying?
As you can see from the tweets below, some Liverpool fans are split over the prospect of potentially missing out on Traore to Tottenham.
While some are saying that Liverpool should sign the Wolves winger, others are pointing at his stats.
Traore’s stats, especially for a winger, are not great.
The winger has scored just seven goals in 142 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.
Last season, Traore scored two goals and gave two assists in 28 Premier League starts.
Back in 2019-20, the winger scored four goals and gave nine assists in 27 league starts.
