Eds do you know if Everton have bid for Amadou Onana?
Fabrizio Romano has said onana prefers us to Westham and another journo has said we've matched Westhams offer.

{Ed002's Note - I have explained the interest in the player but I am not aware of any accepted Liverpool bid at this time.}

I'd be shocked if we've matched West ham 30+ million offer, if all the rumours are true, we can't afford the 17 million for Cornet, unless we're looking to spend money elsewhere and that's why we want Cornet on catalogue terms!

Also says he favours Everton with better personal terms.

Usually Fabrizio Romano is pretty reliable, so I just wonder if we have been holding back a pot of money in the hope we could get Gallagher, with that not happening maybe we’re trying for Onana. Obviously if this came from the Sun I’d take it with a pinch of salt but as its FR, it makes me wonder ?.

I've seen a few people suggest that potential signings for (x) amount can't be true because we wanted Cornet on flexi terms, loan to buy etc. But there's clearly more to the Cornet situation than meets the eye. We signed McNeil so obviously had the funds if we really did want Cornet, supposedly submitted a bid for Onana, and when you consider that West Ham also only want Cornet on the same flexi terms as we proposed, well, something just doesn't sit right. His release clause is very modest for todays economic market in the game so i really do think that clubs just don't see him as a key player to bring in. Great if he comes but not that bothered if he doesn't kind of scenario.

Yeh you maybe right, we're holding the money to spend when we really have to / want to. Not know much about this Onano, il need to check him out! Big money for us to risk in our situation.

Anyone seen him play? . What type of midfielder is he, defensive, box to box etc? .

Efcfanatic! Wonder if Ed002's answer to your question is a typo error or micky take.

Bobby Martinez said he was a number 6 and picked him for Belgium squad. i'd rank that alongside "he's got great potential on fifa".
20yo so some sell-on value for once, but would suggest to me that every striker in the world turned us down or we found someone willing to give us money for Allan and/ or Gomez.

Read up on him strong defensive midfielders, only young lot to learn, but still decent stats for last season. Think he sees us as stepping stone to big boys, much like Richy when he joined, hopefully in 3 years we'll be in a far better shape and he'll want to stay, and Richy might want to come back too (I'm going to miss him) .

Onana will be like Viera. Powerhouse midfielder. Upgrade on anything we have.

He is mustard. Sign him.

I would love us to be seen as a stepping stone to the elite level clubs again, about where we shod be striving for ourselves. Better than relegation candidates.

Just on sky sports that apparently it’s 100% done deal - however they hadn’t confirmed the source or with either club involved ?.
