Liverpool may have only signed Kostas Tsimikas last summer, but the Greek international is already being linked with a move away from Anfield.
According to a report from Corriere dello Sport (via the Express), Tsimikas is wanted by Serie A side Napoli and Kopites have been reacting to the links on social media.
Signed as an understudy to first-choice left-back Andy Robertson, the 24-year-old has struggled to offer much in the way of reliable backup in his first season at Anfield after being struck by injury.
Owing to a variety of issues, Tsimikas has missed 17 matches across the campaign – featuring in just six, totalling 225 minutes.
This all means that Robertson has been worked more or less without rest, appearing in a staggering 39 matches – 3,358 minutes all told.
Having arrived from Olympiacos for £11.75m (SkySports) just over six months ago, most Kopites aren’t ready to cut ties just yet…
He stays.

If he goes we have to start looking for a backup for Robbo again.. This wouldn't make sense
