# Liverpool: Fans react to Pedri transfer rumour

**Some Liverpool fans have laughed off suggestions that Liverpool will look to sign Barcelona youngster Pedri.**

Jurgen Klopp will likely be looking to bring in new signings in the summer transfer window in order to add a freshness to his squad.

At times this season, Liverpool have [looked jaded both physically and mentally](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/29327/12220772/liverpool-fatigue-and-lack-of-signings-contributed-to-premier-league-slump-says-jamie-carragher), highlighting the need for new faces to arrive in the coming months.

The Reds’ attack has been particularly lifeless at times in 2020/21, with Mohamed Salah being [relied upon too much](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-liverpool/leistungsdaten/verein/31) and Diogo Jota a [huge miss through injury](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/diogo-jota/leistungsdaten/spieler/340950).

While Liverpool’s midfield is [well-stocked](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-liverpool/kadernachposition/verein/31) and the least of Klopp’s worries, that hasn’t stopped them being linked with an exciting player in that part of the pitch.

According to [The Mirror](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/barcelona-move-stave-liverpool-transfer-23889677?_ga=2.136382387.280742994.1618092881-1795016108.1555967935), Barcelona are looking to fend off interest from the Reds in Pedri, with the 18-year-old a hugely talented prospect. The midfielder has a £70m release clause in his current contract, but the La Liga giants want to increase that to a whopping £350m in a new deal.

### Liverpool fans mock Pedri claims

A number of Liverpool supporters took to Twitter to give their thoughts on Pedri moving to Anfield, with few believing that such a move will happen.

**“This is way too risky, £70million on a 18-year-old. Yes he has bags of talent but he still needs to grow in this Barca team“**
