‘Perfect Klopp midfielder’: Some Liverpool fans want 24-year-old Spurs target after latest display – originally posted on Sportslens.com
Italy have made a brilliant start to their Euro 2020 campaign with an impressive win over Turkey on Friday night.
They kicked off the campaign with a 3-0 victory, and some Liverpool fans on Twitter were attracted to the display of Inter Milan’s Nicolo Barella.
Merih Demiral scored an own goal in the second half before Ciro Immobile and Lorenzo Insigne got their names on the scoresheet to earn all three points for Italy who will also feature Switzerland and Wales in their remaining group games.
However, it was the performance of Barella that impressed everyone. Barella bossed the middle of the park last night, alongside Jorginho and Manuel Locatelli.
Here are some of the selected tweets:

Nicolo Barella
One of the most complete midfielders itw imo.He’s a perfect Klopp midfielder. Inter will be looking to sell because of their financial problems. Obviously will need sales to afford him
Likelihood 6/10
How much do I want him? 8/10#lfc #ynwa pic.twitter.com/HzaqDW8Stg— Nick

The 24-year-old is a massive talent who helped Inter win the Serie A title last season.
Back in April, Liverpool were linked with a move for the Italy star. Calciomercato reported that Liverpool are Tottenham are keeping close tabs on Barella.
Liverpool will be looking to sign a midfielder this summer following the departure of Gini Wijnaldum.
Inter Milan are looking to sell a host of players this summer to balance their books, but there has been no indication that the club are looking to offload Barella.
He has a contract at the club till 2024. Last season he provided 13 assists in all competitions, and his price will go up if he impresses in the international stage this summer.
Barella is an action-packed midfielder, and he would be a superb signing for either Spurs or Liverpool. Based on the reactions, it seems like, many Liverpool fans feel that he would be perfect in Jurgen Klopp’s system.
