It’s Friday so we’re not going to tax you too much with heavy rumours and boring details.
Instead, let the fine folk of Twitter tell you all you need to know about this morning’s wildest transfer rumour, as reported in The Times.

And this is the link to the article, hidden behind a paywall, boo.
Bullshit right?
Well according to these people, of course it is you numpty.

Jurgen Klopp has identified Javier Hernandez as his one of his top targets this summer. (Rory Smith)
This rumour is going on a while now.

Really really hope the Hernandez rumours are bullshit for 2 reasons. 1. Ex Utd and a not very good one. 2. He wants to be called Chicarito.

Why don’t we let the man behind the story explain it all.
@lubomerkov @JackSear Nope.

@lubomerkov @JackSear They're not. But all of them come with an undertone that's accusing me of bullshit.

Rory includes the fact that Klopp has shown admiration for the Mexican in the past and is understood to have tried to sign him at least once for Borussia Dortmund while Liverpool tried to buy him from their hated rivals in 2014.
In our humble opinion there is no way that the ex-Old Trafford fan favourite will be let leave this month by Bayer Leverkusen, and it will take a huge bid in the summer to see any movement from the Bundesliga side to consider selling arguably one of the best players in Europe this summer.
That’s how a story like this would be normally dismissed, but since it’s being written in The Times, more people are willing to believe it may happen.
Interesting that stories filtering out from credible sources on Javier Hernandez for #LFC in the summer for c£20m from Bayer Leverkusen.
