‘This is terrible news’: Some Liverpool fans really don’t want Klopp to sign 25-year-old attacker

Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter in reaction to links with Wolves winger Adama Traore. Football Insider claimed two days ago that the Reds have actually made an approach to sign the powerful 25-year-old. Jurgen Klopp will undoubtedly be keen to bolster his attacking ranks at Anfield this summer. On his day, Adama is an incredibly potent threat. He just hasn’t been consistent enough over the past 12 months or so. And his poor goals and assists record from last season means that Liverpool moving to sign him would be a really strange decision from Klopp. He racked up just two goals and three assists in 37 Premier League games last season. Liverpool fans really don’t want Adama Traore The general consensus is that Klopp could and should be setting his sights a lot higher than the Wolv...

The news will come as a bitter blow for the United skipper, who had been ever-present in nearly two seasons of League football since joining the Red Devils from Leicester City. ...
