Dominik Szoboszlai admits moving to Liverpool was the 'perfect' next step in his career. The attacking midfielder's £60m deal was confirmed on Sunday, officially ending Newcastle's short-lived interest in the player.
The Magpies liked what they saw in Szoboszlai at RB Leipzig but ultimately decided against triggering the player's release clause or tabling a bid for the 22-year-old. Newcastle instead focused on securing a deal for Sandro Tonali, which should be announced in the coming days.
Liverpool pounced to get their man, with manager Jurgen Klopp personally phoning Szoboszlai to get the deal done in a swift fashion. “It’s really, really good. I enjoyed the last [few] days and I’m looking forward to knowing everybody better," he said.
