# Liverpool fans react as Reds linked with deal for Sandro Tonali

Liverpool are reportedly interested in a move for Brescia midfielder Sandro Tonali, according to reports from [Corriere dello Sport](https://www.corrieredellosport.it/?refresh_ce).

The report, as translated by [Sport Witness](https://sportwitness.co.uk/liverpools-klopp-likes-young-midfielder-lot-club-president-wants-e50m-minimum-sale/), reveals that the player is a target for the Reds, but does make clear that Juventus are the clear favourites for the midfielder.

Several Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to reveal their thoughts over a potential deal for Tonali, with many excited at the prospect of signing him.

### Read Liverpool’s verdict

Tonali would be a great signing for Liverpool, but there could be several factors that hamper a deal.

Firstly, [Sport Witness](https://sportwitness.co.uk/liverpools-klopp-likes-young-midfielder-lot-club-president-wants-e50m-minimum-sale/) reports that the Italian side will demand over €50 million for the midfielder, which could put Liverpool off spending so much money on a player who isn’t guaranteed to start.

Also, with Juventus in the race, Tonali may just prefer a switch in Italy.

The midfielder possesses great passing ability, with a 74.8% [successful pass percentage](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/343501/Show/Sandro-Tonali), with Tonali also possessing great ability from set pieces.
