Some Liverpool supporters are worried that Takumi Minamino might be struggling to settle at Anfield, after a new video emerged on Monday.
Minamino joined the Reds from Salzburg during the January transfer window, having caught the eye against them in the Champions League earlier in the season.
The 25-year-old has made a fairly slow start to life at Liverpool, however, making six appearances but still searching for his first goal or assist.
Minamino was involved in an entertaining video released by the club on Monday, which shows six Reds stars taking part in a shooting accuracy challenge.
“That’s the Scouser in our team…” 👀🤣

The Japanese star took on Liverpool teammates Trent Alexander-Arnold, Adam Lallana, Divock Origi, Curtis Jones and Harvey Elliott, in a battle to fire shots through tyres.
While there is plenty of camaraderie on show, Minamino is visibly quiet throughout, rarely interacting with his colleagues.
These Liverpool fans responded to the video on Twitter, speaking of their concern about the Reds’ newest signing not fitting in at his new club.

I think it's just because of the language barrier. Salzburg officials say that Minamino is a good person.
