‘Buy Him Already’, Replace Ox with him ASAP’ – fans react to Liverpool’s interest in £20m rated midfielder

According to reports, Liverpool’s recruitment team highly rates Aston Villa midfielder Carny Chukwuemeka.

The 18-year-old has been made available for £20 million this summer after stalling to agree a new deal, and fans on Twitter are quite on board with the signing of the youngster:

Fierce competition is expected for Chukwuemeka’s signature as the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal and Newcastle are all said to be interested in the midfielder.

The England U-19 international is reportedly a target for teams like Barcelona and Bayern Munich as well, though it’s possible that they will wait until next year when they can sign him for a nominal fee.

It will be interesting to see if Liverpool would spend £20 million on Chukwuemeka. Although, they could use another midfield option, the Villa youngster’s inexperience and concerns over his attitude could play against him.
