A number of Liverpool supporters have been reacting angrily to an update regarding the Reds’ pursuit of Saul Niguez, with a move for the Spaniard looking unlikely.
Jurgen Klopp has had a relatively quiet summer transfer window to date, with Ibrahima Konate the only signing made thus far.
Gini Wijnaldum’s exit to Paris Saint-Germain has left a void in the middle of the park, however, and it would be a surprise if he isn’t replaced.

With Jordan Henderson and Thiago both in their 30s, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain injury-prone and Curtis Jones still learning, an addition in midfield wouldn’t go amiss.
One player who has been linked with a move to Liverpool is Atletico Madrid hero Saul, but the Daily Mail have claimed [via LFC Transfer Room on Twitter] that they are ‘unlikely to buy’ the 26-year-old, whose tackling average of 1.7 per game last season was bettered by only three players at Anfield.
