# Fraser’s comments give Liverpool potential transfer boost

Ryan Fraser has fuelled speculation linking him with a move to Liverpool, hinting that he is unhappy at Bournemouth.

The Scot has become a key player for the Cherries, providing pace and end product from out wide.

He has been tipped to join Liverpool in recent times, however, with a January move mooted.

Speaking to the [https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/18042614.seeing-friends-like-marc-pugh-depart-afc-bournemouth-hard-take-admits-ryan-fraser/](https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/18042614.seeing-friends-like-marc-pugh-depart-afc-bournemouth-hard-take-admits-ryan-fraser/)*[Bournemouth Echo](https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/18042614.seeing-friends-like-marc-pugh-depart-afc-bournemouth-hard-take-admits-ryan-fraser/)*, Fraser admits he is struggling without his good friend Marc Pugh at the club, having joined QPR in the summer:

> He’s my best mate off the pitch so to see him go on loan (to Hull last season) was hard.

> I was obviously back to being a loner again! Pughie is Pughie. You can’t say a bad word about Pughie. He’s probably one of the nicest guys. Nath (Ake) is up there as well and then I’d say myself maybe third!

> There’s no bad word to say about Pughie. His professionalism, on the pitch he’ll give everything but off the pitch he’s the best family man I’ve seen.

> He’ll look out for you. Like last year he just invited me round for Christmas.

> My family weren’t down, I hadn’t seen them in maybe a year and then Pughie just asked me to go for Christmas with him.

> He didn’t have to do it but that’s just the type of guy he is.

> Me, Shaun MacDonald and Wes Fogden always used to do stuff together.

> So obviously losing one and then we keep losing them and then last season was hard – I used to go and have a coffee with Pughie, but it wasn’t like that. So you end up just going home and doing nothing.

> It’s hard to take.

### Read Liverpool Verdict

Fraser would be an excellent signing by Liverpool, should a deal end up coming to fruition.

The winger isn’t good enough to justify being a regular starter for the Reds, but he would be a potent weapon from the substitutes’ bench.

His speed would cause problems against tiring legs and he possesses the work-rate to thrive in a Jurgen Klopp side.

It does appear as though Fraser may be angling for a move away from Bournemouth, but more should become clearer as the January transfer window approaches.
