Liverpool has successfully secured the signing of Dominik Szoboszlai, who joins the club on a five-year deal. The transfer was finalized after Liverpool triggered the £60m release clause, luring Szoboszlai away from RB Leipzig.
Having spent two-and-a-half years in the Bundesliga with Leipzig, Szoboszlai brings a wealth of experience, having made 91 appearances across all competitions. He now becomes Liverpool's second summer signing, following in the footsteps of Alexis Mac Allister.
Expressing his excitement, Szoboszlai conveyed his anticipation to meet the fans at Anfield, promising to give his all on the field. With this latest addition, Liverpool's summer transfer window is shaping up impressively.
In a nod to his admiration for Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard, Dominik Szoboszlai has made the decision to wear the No.8 jersey, previously worn by Naby Keita for five seasons before his departure from Anfield.
Szoboszlai revealed his reasoning behind choosing the No.8 shirt, stating, "I will be number 8 as I have a tattoo of Steven Gerrard. That was one of the reasons why. He was one of the biggest influences on me when I was a child." This heartfelt connection to Gerrard, a childhood hero and one of football's greats, solidifies Szoboszlai's pride in wearing the iconic No.8 for Liverpool.
The arrival of Szoboszlai strengthens Liverpool's squad and adds another dimension to their midfield. Fans can look forward to witnessing his talents unfold at Anfield as he embarks on this new chapter of his career.
