A number of Liverpool supporters want the Reds to sign Leeds United star Raphinha this summer, following some comments regarding his future.
The Reds managed to get something from a disappointing season last weekend, not only securing a top-four finish, but actually ending up third in the Premier League.
It was a superb effort from both Jurgen Klopp and his players, who dug deep during the business end of the campaign, winning eight and drawing two of their last 10 matches.

Despite this, it is clear that reinforcements are required in the summer transfer window, as Klopp looks to freshen up his squad, especially with Gini Wijnaldum moving on.
Raphinha has been linked as a transfer target for Liverpool before, and in an interview with UOL Esporte [via Anfield Watch], he discussed his respect for the Reds’ interest:
“It is difficult to define how I feel when I hear speculation about giant teams like Liverpool and Manchester United interested in signing me. Man, I grew up watching these teams on television.”

These Liverpool fans took to Twitter to talk up the idea of the Brazilian moving to Anfield, claiming he is a superb footballer – he was hailed as ‘incredible’ by Tony Cascarino back in March.
