Neco Williams sent Liverpool message as Nottingham Forest agreement reached

Liverpool fans have given their verdict on the agreement reached with Nottingham Forest for full-back Neco Williams.

The Wales international has been a key target for Steve Cooper this summer, with the 21-year-old likely to be brought in to replace Djed Spence, who is closing in on a move to Tottenham Hotspur. After entering advanced negotiations with Liverpool, various reports now claim that a fee has been agreed between the two teams. The transfer will see Forest pay a total of £17 million for the full-back.

Williams is now free to agree personal terms with Forest ahead of a potential move to the City Ground. Should he complete a transfer, then he will become the fifth signing of the summer.

Giulian Biancone, Dean Henderson and Moussa Niakhate have joined Taiwo Awoniyi as the new faces at the club in the past week as Steve Cooper looks to prepare his squad for the Premier League. Forest kick off their campaign against Newcastle United in just under a month.

Following the news of the agreement between Forest and Liverpool, Liverpool fans took to social media to give their reaction. And they are all in agreement over the potential transfer.

He needs more minutes with the World Cup around the corner, and it looks as if Liverpool have found a better project to work on regarding Ramsay.

Cam : I'm happy we've got a decent fee for Neco Williams as there's no doubt the Wales international has potential.

£17m is a great fee for both the Reds and Nottingham Forest so I hope he smashes it next season, best of luck to him. #LFC #NFFC

Mr Tim : Great deal for Neco Williams. Did well at Fulham. Great for all parties. £17m. #lfc Good luck at Nottingham Forest, Neco.

Rex : £17M + add-on's for Neco Williams

Great business. Hopefully a buyback clause just in case. #LFC

Ahmed Elhafi : Best of luck for Nico Williams he deserve to play week in week out but sadly not on a Liverpool shirt.

Lou : I think it’s very good business from us

Halps : £17 million for Neco Williams is really good business.
